Explain micelle formation in a soap solution.

टिप्पणी लिखिए

उत्तर

  1. A soap molecule has a long hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain called tail which is attached to the hydrophilic ionic carboxylate group, called the head.
  2. In water, the soap molecules arrange themselves to form spherical particles that are called micelles.
  3. In each micelle, the hydrophobic tails of soap molecules point to the centre and the hydrophilic heads lie on the surface of the sphere.
  4. As a result of this, soap dispersion in water is stable.
