Foaming Capacity of Soaps Investigatory Projects Chemistry Class 12 Cbse
introduction
Soaps are sodium or potassium salts of higher
fatty acids like stearic, palmitic and oleic acids
can be either saturated or unsaturated. They
contain a long hydrocarbon chain of about 10-
20 carbon with one carboxylic acid group as the
functional group. A soap molecule a tadpole
shaped structure, whose ends have different
polarities. At one end is the long hydrocarbon
chain that is non-polar and hydrophobic, i.e.,
insoluble in water but oil soluble. At the other
end is the short polar carboxylate ion which is
hydrophilic i.e., water soluble but insoluble in
oil and grease. Long Hydrocarbon Chain
Hydrophobic end Hydrophilic end When soap is
shaken with water it becomes a soap solution
that is colloidal in nature. Agitating it tends to
concentrate the solution on the surface and
causes foaming. This helps the soap molecules
make a unimolecular film on the surface of
water and to penetrate the fabric. The long
non-polar end of a soap molecule that are
hydrophobic, gravitate towards and surround
the dirt (fat or oil with dust absorbed in it). The
short polar end containing the carboxylate ion,
face the water away from the dirt. A number of
soap molecules surround or encircle dirt and
grease in a clustered structure called 'micelles',
which encircles such particles and emulsify
them. Cleansing action of soaps decreases in
hard water. Hard water contains Calcium and
magnesium ions which react with sodium
carbonate to produce insoluble carbonates of
higher fatty acids.
This hardness can be removed by addition of
Sodium Carbonate.
COMMERCIAL PREPARATIONS
The most popular soap making process today
is the cold process method where fat such as
olive oil sector will strong alkaline solution
wild some Soapers use the historical hot
process
Handmade soap different from industrial
shopping, usually and I accept that is
sometimes used to consume the alkali and is
not removed, leaving a natural moisturizer
soap and detergent emollient search as
search added actress which is the
saponification process is sufficiently
advanced that the soap has begun after most
of the oils have saponified
So that they remain undirected in the
finished soap.
PREPARATIONS OF SOAPS
IN cold Process and hot process soap
making it may be required the cold
process of making take place at the
sufficient temperature set of a story the
fat big used process can be used right
away because the early and fat saponified
quickly at the higher temperature used in
hot process soap making. Cold process of
making required measurements of alkali
and mouse and computing the ratio using
saponification charts to answer that the
finished product is mild and skin friendly.
IN HOT PROCESS
Hot process in the hot process together at 80-
1000 c saponification which is the soap maker can
determine by taste or by eye.
COLD PROCESS
Cold which is the news to calculate the process
soap makes up the saponification value of the fat
used on a saponification chart appropriate amount
of alkali
Excess unreacted allegory in the shop will result
In a very high PH and can burn are edited skin not
enough so far easy teacher the alkalies dissolved
in water that also heated.
Then if the solid at room temperature .Once both
substances to have cooled to approximately 10
degrees fahrenheit guide this Twister interest
there are wearing levels of traces .
EXPERIMENT
Soap samples of various brands are taken
and their capacity with the next
informing capacities said to be heavy tails
capacities in notice sample taken
separately and their foaming capacity is
observed best cleaning capacity the test
request to be done with distilled water as
well as with the test of soap on distilled
water give the actual strength of the
cleaning capacity request to be done with
distilled water as well as Ca+2 ,Mg+2
capacity.
OBJECTIVE
To compare the foaming capacity of
various soaps.
THEORY
The foaming capacity of soaps upon the
nature of the shop and its concentration
this may be compared by equal having
the same concentrations which saves the
same amount of time used during
disappears gradually the time taken to
disappear in equal sample is determined
the longer the time take it for the form
today disappear elite sample is
determined the longer time taken for the
disappearance of the given sample
offshore of greater is its foaming capacity
cleaning action.
REQUIREMENTS
FIVE 100ml conical flask, 5 test tubes
100 ml measuring cylinder, test tube
stand, weighing machine ,stopwatch
CHEMICALS REQUIRED
5 different of Soap sample, distilled water
, tap water.
Procedure
1. Take 5 100ml conical flasks
add number 1….2345 p put
60 table of water in each
flask and add 8 grams of
soap.
2. Warm the contents to get a
solution.
3. Take 5 test tubes add 1 ml
of soap solution to 3 ml of
water
Repeat the process for each
soap solution in different test.
4. Close the mouths of the test
tube and vigorously for a
minute do the same for all
test tubes and with equal
force.
5. Start the timer immediately
and not is the rate of 2 mm
froth.
OBSERVATIONS
Test tube No. Volume of Volume Time taken for
soap of water disappearance
solutions added
1.Dove 8ml 16ml 11’42”
2.lux 8ml 16ml 3’28”
3.Tetmosol 8ml 16ml 5’10”
4.Santoor 8ml 16ml 15’32”
5.Cinthol 8ml 16ml 9’40”
RESULT
The cleansing capacity of soaps taken is
in the order
SANTOOR>DOVE>CINTHOL>TETMOSOL>LUX
From these experiment we can infer that santoor
has the highest foaming capacity in other words
highest cleaning capacity l
Lux on the other hand is found to be have least
amount of time taken disapperance of the foam
Produced and thus is said to be have least foaming
capacity and cleansing capacity test for handness
in water.
TEST for Ca+2 and Mg+2 salts in the water supplied
Test for Ca+2 in water .
H2O + NH4Cl +NH4OH+(NH4)2CO3
No precipitate.
That show negative result for the presence of salts
Causing hardness in water.The water used doesn’t
contain salts of Ca+2 and Mg+2 .the tap water
provided is soft and thus the experimental.
