How does soap mix with octane?

When soap is mixed with octane the non-polar ends of the soap molecules are attracted with induced-dipole induced-dipole attractions to the non-polar octane molecules. The octane molecules repel the polar ends of the soap and the soap molecules form inverted soap bubbles that attract polar molecules like water.

When you do laundry what cause the nonpolar oil or greasy dirt to mix with the polar water?

Most laundry dirt is oily or greasy. Detergents can mix with both oil and water, so when the wash water goes down the drain, the soap and dirt go with it. Detergent molecules are designed with a polar head of the molecule and a non-polar tail. The detergent molecule thus "ties together" the water and the grease. Soap performs the same function.

Is a mixture of soap and water a physical or chemical change?

Soap molecules have non-polar and polar ends. When mixed with water, the soap dissolves, therefore having a physical change (but maintaining its chemical properties). The polar ends are in contact with water and consist of a salt, the non-polar ends are a long chain of hydrocarbons that do not mix with water.When soap molecules mix with water they form micelles, that consist of a bunch of molecules that in the center have the non-polar end (that traps dirt and other organic compounds) and in the exterior have the polar end in contact with water.
