Explain the cleaning action of soap with micelle |
|
Answer» When a soap is dissolved in water many molecules came together and form a group called micelle because their hydrocarbon chain came together and its polar end is projected outward.When a cloth with a spot of oil is dissolved in soap solution .Soap dissolved tiny oil droplets by the hydrogencarbon chain of the micelle.Due to the outer pull of the water these micelles dissolved in water and clothes get washed away Soaps form micelles in water. The oily dirt from clothes get attached to the centre of micelle. The micelles do not come close to each other and get separated due to ion-ion repulsion. The micelles containing oil dirt thus stay in solution as colloid and are easily rinsed away. When we Jerk In the cleansing action, with the help of micelles formation dirt is removed from the cloth when we pour water and apply soap on the cloth then the micelles formation will take place it\'s hydrophilic end will remain in the water and hydrophobic will attach to the dirt. When we Jersey the cloth then the dirt will come out from the cloth and this is called the cleansing action of soap |
