It depends on the plant you have. when you buy a new plant it usually has instructions so you would follow. Hope it helps!!!
By definition, Bronsted-Lowry acid is a proton donor in the acid-base neutralization reaction. When a weak acid like acetylsalicylic acid is reacted with water, the water here acts as the Bronsted-Lowry base. This is possible because water has properties of amphoterism - can act as an acid or base. In this case, acetylsalicylic acid would have to donate its H+ atom to water, so that it would yield a hydronium ion, H₃O⁺. The complete net ionic reaction is shown in the picture.
So, in the reaction, the products yield are the acetylsalicylate ion and the hydronium ion.
Soap is the sodium or potassium salt of long chain of fatty acid. Fatty acids when treated with NaOH or KOH forms Soap. This process is called as Saponification. Examples of Soap are as follow,
1. Sodium Stearate C₁₇H₃₅COONa
2. Potassium Oleate C₁₇H₃₃COOK
Reaction of Soap with MgCl₂;
When Soap is treated with MgCl₂ or CaCl₂ it forms insoluble precipitate called S.C.U.M. The reactions with MgCl₂ are as follow,
2C₁₇H₃₅COONa + MgCl₂ --------> 2C₁₇H₃₅COOMg + 2 NaCl
2C₁₇H₃₃COOK + MgCl₂ --------> 2C₁₇H₃₅COOMg + 2 KCl
These reaction are often found in hard water. And this reaction decreases the effectiveness of soap.
