Is soap a chemical?
Soap is a chemical compound or a mixture of more of them
What is the chemical formula for Calcium Stearate?
Calcium stearate is carboxylate of calcium that is found in some lubricants and surfactants. It is a white waxy powder. It is produced by heating stearic acid, a fatty acid, and calcium oxide. It is also formed when sodium stearate is added to hard water (as scum). Sodium stearate + CaSO4 -----> C36H70CaO4 + Na2SO4 OR Sodium stearate + Ca(HCO3)2-------------> C36H70CaO4 + NaHCO3 Anyway, just wanted to refresh your memory a little bit... The formula is, as mentioned earlier : C36H70CaO4 Oh, and sodium stearate's just a fancy word for soap...
What are the sources of soap?
A soap factory. Soap is the chemical sodium stearate, or sodium palmate. It is made in a factory by boiling together, sodium hydroxide (lye) and stearic acid, or palmitic acid.
What is the detergent soap bar formula?
Sodium Stearate , or Sodium Palmate. The formulas are Sodium stearate CH3(CH2)16COO^-Na^+ Sodium, palmate CH3(CH2)13COO^-Na^+ Soaps that lather (dissolve) in salt water have the sodium ion replace by a potassium ion (K^+). This is because of the common ion effect of sodium in sodium stereate and sadium in sodium chloride of salt water.
Does soap contain basic solutions?
Soaps contain sodium salts of weak carboxylic acids such as sodium stearate which show weakly alkaline behavior.

What is the difference between soap and shower gel?
Soap is primarily sodium stearate. It leaves a film when it combines with hard water to form calcium stearate (soap scum). Body wash is a detergent that does not form soap scum. It, like Zest bath bars has no sodium stearate. The difference between the Zest and most body washes is the fragrance in the recipe and that you are paying for a whole lot of water and a fancy bottle.
What is c17h35coona?
sodium sterate, an organic compound apparently present in soap??
Which reaction results in the production of soap?
In hard water we find Calcium and Magnesium ions. These react with the Sodium stearate (soap) to form Calcium and magnesium stearate and Na+ ions Sodium stearate+ Ca2+ +Mg2+ --> Calcium stearate + Magnesium stearate + Na+ ions
What the scientific name for dish soap?
Soaps are Sodium or Potassium salts of long chain fatty acids as Palmitic acid, Stearic acid, oleic acid e.t.c, so their chemical names are Sodium palmitate, Sodium stearate, Potassium oleate e.t.c
Does soap contain basic solutions?
Soaps contain sodium salts of weak carboxylic acids such as sodium stearate which show weakly alkaline behavior.
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)
Is dove a soap or detergent?

Is calcium stearate a soap or a salt?
Soaps are usually salts of long chain fatty acids with Sodium or Potassium ion and are soluble in water but Calcium stearate is very slightly soluble in water so can not be used as soap so it is better to consider it as a salt only.
Is calcium stearate considered a soap or a salt?
Soaps are usually salts of long chain fatty acids with Sodium or Potassium ion and are soluble in water but Calcium stearate is very slightly soluble in water so can not be used as soap so it is better to consider it as a salt only.
