Salt is added to soap solution to help precipitation and separation of salt.
The purpose is to help the mixture of salt water and ethanol so the can find the DNA of strawberry bananna etc. Extrsctions
Alcohol can dissolve soap but not salt. When alcohol is applied to soap, it can break down the soap molecules and cause it to dissolve. Salt, on the other hand, does not dissolve in alcohol due to differences in their chemical structures.
When a salt solution is added to the saponification mixture, the presence of excess ions from the salt solution can disrupt the balance within the mixture. This disruption can lead to the formation of insoluble salts, which precipitate out of the solution. The precipitation of the salt helps separate it from the soap and other components of the mixture.
Sodium chloride is used to precipitate soaps from the solution.
The salt reacts with the water that would go toward acting as a solvent for the organic molecule. The inorganic salt is more "thirsty" than the organic molecule and deprives the soap of sufficient water to keep it soluble. This causes the soap to precipitate.
In a mixture of milk and soap, salt does not physically "run away" from soap, but it can affect the properties of the solution. When salt is added to the soap and milk mixture, it can disrupt the structure of micelles formed by the soap, potentially reducing its effectiveness. Additionally, the salt can influence the solubility of the soap and may lead to precipitation. Therefore, the interaction between salt, soap, and milk is complex and depends on their concentrations and the specific properties of each component.
Adding NaCl solution to the soap mixture helps to separate the soap from the aqueous solution. This process is called salting out, where the addition of salt reduces the solubility of the soap, causing it to precipitate out of the solution.
First some NaOH is added to saturated or unsaturated vegetable oils. We heat and stir them together slowly and a thick viscous whitish solution is formed which contains soap. It is then treated with common salt to cause precipitation .The soap floats over the salt solution . It is then scooped out and washed with water to remove excess NaOH and salt. At the end fillers are added to bring in certain properties for specific uses of the soap.
1. Sodium chloride help to separate soap from the mixture by precipitation. 2. Adding sodium chloride the soap is more hard.

Salting out is used in the preparation of soap to help separate the soap from the glycerin during the saponification reaction. By adding salt to the soap mixture, the soap molecules are forced to come out of solution, making it easier to separate them from the glycerin layer.
