If tap water and soap form an insoluble deposit is this a physical or chemical change?

The formation of an insoluble deposit when tap water and soap are mixed is a physical change, not a chemical change. In this case, the molecules of the soap and tap water are simply rearranging themselves to form the deposit, without any new substances being formed.


Why does distilled water produce more suds?

Distilled water produces more suds compared to tap water because it has fewer impurities and minerals that can interfere with soap lathering. The absence of minerals allows the soap molecules to interact more effectively, resulting in increased sudsing.


If you observe scum around the edge of the sink after using soap what might you infer was dissolved in the tap water?

The scum around the sink could be caused by hard water minerals like calcium and magnesium. When soap is used in hard water, it reacts with these minerals to form soap scum. Using a water softener or vinegar can help reduce the formation of scum.


Tap water is hard water or soft water?

Tap water with lots of dissolved limestone is hard. If the calcium ions are replaced with sodium ions it is said to be soft. To determine if your tap water is hard, you can test it by using tincture of green soap. The softer the water, the more the foam. See the attached link.


What is white residue in water called?

It depends on where the water is. If it's tap water, then it's a mineral deposit formed when the water evaporates. Most water has dissolved minerals in it. If it's not treated water, then it could be anything.

What are the four components of good hand washing?

That is a good question! When you wash your hands, the overhead water should be clean and free from any microorganisms. Then you must use the soap to wash your hands. With foam of the soap the germs are washed away. You must give enough time to wash the hands. You must take special care to wash the nails. You must apply soap to the tap and scrub the same. You pour the water on tap, then wash your hand and then close the tap. Otherwise the germs will come back on your hand, from the tap, as you close the tap.

no it is impossible....by heating at a high temperature it seems to be possible


Would you use more or less soap with well water than with tap water?

That's difficult to say, because the amount of soap required depends on the hardness of the water. The rule of thumb is well water has more dissolved minerals - is "harder" - than city water...but many cities use wells or aquifers to supply their water, and as a result the tap water in those cities is very hard.
