Its polar end mixes with the water so it can be washed away. ~APEX
Soap is generally basic in nature because it tends to contain alkaline substances such as sodium or potassium hydroxide. When mixed with water, soap forms a solution that is typically slightly basic.
I don't think so as they are not soluble in water (that's what i think)

Soap itself is not an alkali, but it is usually made by mixing an alkali (such as sodium hydroxide) with fats or oils. When mixed with water, soap can act as a base and help to remove dirt and oils from surfaces.
No.Only water and soap can be mixed together.Because,soap is the sodium or potassium salt of higher fatty acids.So,it will dissolve in water.Oil is an ester of glycerol with higher fatty acids and sodium or potassium salts of acids are generally insoluble in organic solvents.Esters are immiscible with water.Therefore,in the mixture of water,soap and oil,soap will dissolve in water and pure oil will float on water.
Bubbles are formed from soap when they are mixed with water and there is air. When air is present and water is mixed with soap, bubbles will definitely form.
Dish soap and water are commonly mixed together to make bubbles. Dish soap acts as a surfactant, reducing the surface tension of water and allowing bubbles to form.
Soap and water provide a medium in which dirt is lifted from the skin and is mixed within the medium created by the soap and water. As the soap and water are rinsed off the skin, the dirt is carried away as well.
Yes, the amount of soap mixed with water can affect how well the water will stay on a penny. Soap reduces the surface tension of water, causing it to spread out more easily. Too much soap can prevent the water from forming a cohesive layer on the penny, causing it to bead up or slide off.

You need a soap solution (water mixed with soap or detergent) and air to make bubbles. The soap solution lowers the surface tension of the water, allowing the bubbles to form and hold their shape.
The first person who mixed soap, water, and an tool that allowed for an unknown individual to create the first purported soap bubble.

No, the formation of soap scum is not a chemical change. Soap scum appears as the result of a physical change. Some of the soap and whatever has become incorporated into the soap and water dry. After the water is gone, the things left are from the soap and whatever mixed with the soap when it was "working" at cleaning.
