Mg(C17H35COO)2 is formed, which is not water soluble. This is why detergents are often used instead of soaps in water containing magnesium or calcium ions - because no solids will form.

How do you test insoluble matter in soap?
through the copper sulphate test, magnesium sulphate and calcium chloride test.
What problems that can occur when washing when the soap is added to hard water?
The soap may not work as efficiently as it works in soft water since scum formation may take place.
Is sodium nitrate harmfull if added to soap?
No sodium nitrate is not harmful if added to soap. Sodium nitrate has been used in many products such as fertilizer and it is also added to food as a preservative.
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.
What is added to soap to make it transparent?
More glycerin.
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.
Which compounds are added to increase weight of soap?
sodium chloride
What is the work of NaCl in soap preparation?
Sodium chloride is added to precipitate the soap.
Why does NaCl help to precipitate the soap?
Sodium chloride is used to precipitate soaps from the solution.
Why is sodium chloride in Dawn dish soap?
Sodium chloride is added to increase the viscosity of the solution.
How do you test insoluble matter in soap?
through the copper sulphate test, magnesium sulphate and calcium chloride test.
Why does the addition of a NaCl in a saponification?
Sodium chloride help the precipitation of soaps.
Hydrochloric Acid plus Sodium Hydroxide plus soap. What happens?
A water solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) and soap.
Does sodium chloride form a precipitate with soap solution?
Sodium chloride is needed to precipitate soap from solutions.
Do you want sodium chloride in your bath soap?
Any bath soap contain a little sodium chloride.
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 the purpose of adding sodium chloride during hard soap preparation?
Adding sodium chloride soap is precipitated.
