What happens when calcium chloride is added to a soap that lathered most?

Dissolved calcium chloride, among other salts, prevents soap from lathering. If you add some to any soap it will stop some of the lathering.


How does soap react with the salts CaCl2 or MgCl2?

An insoluble salt is formed--commonly called soap scum. Soap is the potassium or sodium salt of fatty acids. When calcium takes the place of the sodium or potassium, a calcium salt is formed. This takes the form of a whitish precipitate.


Why does NaCl heelp to precipitate the soap from aqueous soltion?

It depends on the salt. A salt of calcium, magnesium, or iron will form an insoluble compound that will precipitate with a soap molecule that is known as soap scum. Here is a typical reaction: Ca2+(aq) + 2C17H35COO-(aq) ==> (C17H35COO-)2Ca2+(s) Sodium chloride will not form a precipitate with soap as long as the soap is a carboxylate.


What is the equation for the reaction of CaCl2 with soap sodium oleate and what is it balanced?

Ca2+Cl-2 + 2 Na+Oleate- = Ca2+Oleate-2 + 2 Na+Cl- ie: One molecule of Calcium Chloride + two molecules of Sodium Oleate leads to one molecule of Calcium Oleate plus two molecules of sodium chloride.


How do you test insoluble matter in soap?

through the copper sulphate test, magnesium sulphate and calcium chloride test.

Equation showing the formation of scum when soaps are dissolved in hard water?

Sodium Stearate + Ca2+ and Mg2+ = Calcium Stearate + Na+ Ions (Soap) (Dissolved in water) (Soluble in water)


How you can made calcium soap of fatty acids?

Soap scum is calcium soap of fatty acids. It is the result of soap in hard water-- the fatty acids in soap bond with the calcium ions in hard water and create an insoluble compound.


Why is soap soluble in the presence of sodium ions but not calcium ions?

Nearly all sodium salts are soluble in water. Most calcium salts aren't. calcium salts of the same fatty acids that make up potassium and sodium soaps are not water soluble. Dissolved calcium and magnesium are the two most common minerals that make water "hard." The degree of hardness becomes greater as the calcium and magnesium content increases. Bathing with soap in hard water leaves a film of sticky soap curd on the skin


Does sodium chloride form a precipitate with soap solution?
