What reaction occurs when sodium hydroxide is added to the stearic acid in cyclohexane and water? How does this change the solubility of cyclohexane in water? Does HCI reverse this reaction and if so why? Does sodium chloride have the same type of behavior as stearic acid or is it different? Explain why these two solutes are the same or different.
