Soap and detergent molecules have a long, hydrophobic "tail" and a polar, hydrophilic "head." they are sometimes referred to as
"bridge molecules" because they allow oils and fats to be suspended and "dissolved" in water (which they otherwise would not be able to do). Imagine that you are using soap to wash away dirt that is being held against your skin in an oily film. In this scenario, how are the soap, dirt/oil, and water arranged at the molecular level?
The answer is The soap molecules encase the dirt/oil within a small droplet that has a water-loving exterior and a water-repelling interior
Soap has hydrophobic "tail" and a polar, hydrophilic "head". The hydrophobic tail would be able to attach to the lipid. This will make the soap encase the dirt/oil with theil tail inside. The hydrophilic head will be on the exterior, which will make a structure a kinda look like polar and could dissolved into water.
