NO, THERE IS NO SALT IN SOAP!!!
----------------------------------------------------
Sodium Chloride (NaCl) is often called Salt or Table Salt.
However, technically it is only one type of salt.
In Chemistry, a salt is any ionically bonded compound.
Lye Soap is a type of soap formed by an ionic bond between Sodium (Na+) and the conjugate base of a fatty acid (ROO-)
ROO-Na+
And thus, Lye Soap IS A SALT.
Salts will dissociate into their ionic constituents in water. Soap is not required for that step.

What is bar soap made from?
Soap is made from a combination of the following sodium or potassium, the salts of fatty acids (not exactly how the film 'Fight Club' portrays it), extracted by a process known as 'Saponification' and then hydrogenize the them, and glycerol and crude soap. Shape the product, pack it and off to the stores it's sent. I am sure there is more methods involved, but that is a brief look. Some soaps can also be made from vegtable oils. pig fat amd intestines Close--fat and lye.
Is bar soap an homogeneous mixture?
Yes it is, it is made from a mixture of the sodium salts of various fatty acids of natural oils and fats.
How are insoluble salts made?
Insoluble salts are the products of precipitation reactions.
When can salts be made?
Salts are the products of reactions between bases and acids.
Are insoluble salts made by electrolysis?
Insoluble salts are not the products of electrolysis.
Why does soep dissolve?
Soap is made out of a mixture of hydrophilic salts, which is why it dissolves in water.
Why does hard water consumes lot of soap?
beacuse it contain dissolve salts of calcium and magnesium salts and other heavy metals and it does not form lather with soap readily..
Why hard water consume lots of soap?
beacuse it contain dissolve salts of calcium and magnesium salts and other heavy metals and it does not form lather with soap readily..
Why is soap neutralized by metal salts?
Salt is added to soap solution to help precipitation and separation of salt.
What is the pH of lifebouy soap?
Lifebouy is bathing soap. These Soaps are salts made from mixing of animal or vegetable oils (acid) with Sodium hydroxide NaOH or Potassium Hydroxide (KOH)(base). pH value of a bathing soap should be around 7.5 - 9.
Is soap a element or mixture?
Soaps are salts of fatty acids and hence are compounds.
Is Soap Element or Compound?
Soaps are salts of fatty acids and hence are compounds.
What chemical compound is in a bar of soap?
The principal components are salts of fatty acids.

Why is soap referred to as a type of salt?
Soap is referred to as a type of salt because it is a mixture of sodium salts from naturally occurring fatty acids. Soap also has other acids and bases.
Why is soap not suitable for washing clothes when water is hard?
detergents are the sodium salts of alkyl suphonic acids. They contain a sulphonic acid group istead of a carboxyl group. soaps are made up of Na and Mg salts of organic fatty acids. detergents react even with water since they do not form scum, due to solubility of Naq and Mg salts in water. While soaps donot lather with hard water as they form scum.
