Will a penny become cleaner in tap water?

Depends what's on it. Tap water would probably be able to remove dirt, but the problem is that when the water hits it, it generally takes less force to go around the dirt than to displace it, so that's what the water does. When the dirt is really loose, then it doesn't take much force to just move it out of the water's path, so it is removed from the coin by the tap-water. If I remember correctly, the reason the dirt comes off in cleaning fluids is that it reacts with the dirt.

Can water alone clean your hands?

Oils on human skin and hair keep them from drying out, but the oils can also attract and hold dirt. The oily dirt is a nonpolar mixture. So washing with water alone wont clean any of the dirt away. So that's where soap comes in! Soaps are salts of fatty acids, which are hydrogen molecules with carboxylic acids at one end...------ Soap has a ionic end that will dissolve in water a longg hydrocarbon portion that WILL dissolve in oily dirt. The dirt is removed from your skin and hair or fabric, suspended in the wash water and washed away:)

What is emulsification of soap?

Emulsification is the process of dispersing one liquid into another immiscible liquid (ie mixing 2 things that do not mix naturally). Oil (which attracts dirt) doesn't naturally mix with water. However soap can suspend oil/dirt in such a way that it gets suspended in water and can be removed when we wash it with water. This is called emulsification of soap.
