Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Soaps are salts. Salts are formed on the reaction of an acid with bases.
Bases are substances that dissociate in water to produce hydroxide ions. It can also be defined as a substance that accepts
On the other hand, a soap is a sodium or potassium salt of a carboxylic acid group (−COOH), having a non-polar chain of carbon atoms at one end. The non-polar end of the soap interacts with non-polar oils, dirt and readily removes them.
Conclusion:
A base is a substance that produces hydroxide ions, when dissolved in water or accepts
