CHEMICAL FORMULA<\/h2>\n<p>The\u00a0<b>soap<\/b>\u00a0is a product used for personal hygiene and for washing certain objects. It is available in tablet, powder, cream or liquid form.<\/p>\n<p>Soaps base their cleaning action on fats with water thanks to the structure of their molecules. Soap has a liposoluble part (dissolves in fats) and a water-soluble part (dissolves in water). This causes the fat-soluble end to carry away fats and the water-soluble end to be carried away by the water.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9414\" src=\"https:\/\/www.experimentoscientificos.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/FORMULA-JABON.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.experimentoscientificos.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/FORMULA-JABON.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.experimentoscientificos.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/FORMULA-JABON-300x141.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The reaction by which soap is formed is saponification. It is a sodium or potassium salt from the chemical reaction between an alkali (such as sodium or potassium hydroxide) and a lipid (or fat). The fat used can be of vegetable origin (such as olive oil) or animal origin (such as lard). Soap is soluble in water.\u00a0<sup id=\"cite_ref-3\" class=\"reference separada\"><\/sup><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>chemical formula<\/strong> resulting from the saponification reaction is therefore:\u00a0<b>grease + caustic soda \u2192 soap + glycerine.<\/b><br \/>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-2654312438869140\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- Hacer jabon --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2654312438869140\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"5029658723\"\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<h2>EXPERIMENTS - HOW TO MAKE SOAP<\/h2>\n<p>The traditional method of soap making is through the use of a fat and an alkali.

Sometimes people do not realise that a basic pH (such as caustic soda) is just as corrosive and dangerous as an acidic pH. There have been many accidents where caustic soda has been splashed into the eyes and can cause blindness. It is very important to carry out the process carefully, wearing gloves and goggles. Also, when soda reacts with an acid it causes a very exothermic reaction.<\/p>\n<p>If you have heard that soda is a great plunger (in fact in supermarkets it is sold as a plunger) it is precisely because of its high reactivity and corrosiveness.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9402\" src=\"https:\/\/www.experimentoscientificos.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/JABON-SOSA-150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"113\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once you have made the soap, it is also important to calculate the amounts of soda and oil. Here is a way to calculate them: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.experimentoscientificos.es\/en\/calcular-cantidad-aceite-sosa\/\">Calculate amount of soda and oil<\/a>. If you add too much soda, it will not react and you will be left with a soap with a very high pH. High pH is corrosive to the skin.
