Soaps are sodium or potassium fatty acids salts, produced from the hydrolysis of fats in a chemical reaction called saponification. In water, the sodium or potassium ions float free, leaving a negatively-charged head. Soap is an excellent cleanser because of its ability to act as an emulsifying agent.

∙ 12y agoIt makes you clean by sprinkling little namblaas all over your body, namblaas are like the atoms in oven cleaners.That's where the rhyme came from:
Oven cleaners,
filthly weiners,
lots of namblaa!
pretty weiners.
And the word namblaas came from the greek nambleysionwhich mean "Excees dirt", also vacums can be powered by colmbetricity which means ''the bees power". And soap was originaly discovered by a caveman named UGH in the preishtoric age and he managed to get a load of namblaas and poured them over himself, making himself clean, this was drawn in a cave mans painting which was dicover by Proffeser Galvine and Proffeser Suttania! Unforgently, in the drawings UGH tragically died due to smeeling new, which made him be chased off a large cliff by a large pack of Saberthooth Rabits.
Also if you turn right, at three past two in the morning, (GMT +0) and sing:
Oh no,
Oh no,
The Captains got my coffers.
Oh no,
Oh no,
And he's probably got aids.
Things happen. Things wonderful and beautiful. The sky lights up and the clouds part, for just a moment everything is peacful. The sky turns slightly bluey. Oh it truly is wonderful, quite indescribable. It is like a pony being shaved, but very slowly and awfully. But the torturer (who you are being to feel so very wonderful) is having a great time. He shaves ponies for a living and they shave him but the ponies have a far gentler touch than that of the torturer and so he has a real good time whilst his poor ponies suffer. Have you ever seen a bald pony before though, just out of curiosity? Their hair conceals spots and keeps them warm at night. It makes them joyful, it makes them happy.
