How does soap clean surfaces?
Soap is the organic salt 'Sodium palmate'/stearate. This substance has an ionic bond between the sodium ion and the palmate/stearate. This ioinic bond makes it water soluble. The palmate or stearate is a long organic chain , making it miscible with organic oils and fats etc., So it will absorb oil, fat, grease, etc. As humans our skin contains natural oils. If we do not wash for a lomg period , these oils accumalate, and we fell 'dirty'. So we lather the soap in water to dissolve the block/tablet. .
