ABSTRACT
The soap that is used for the analysis is Lux. Â The analytical tests carried out on the soap are moisture content and free caustic alkali. Â For the determination of the moisture content, the materials and reagent that was used are:
i. The Porcelain dish
ii. Glass rod and
iii. Hot air oven
The reagents are:
i. The petroleum spirit and
ii. Sodium acetate
For the determination of the free caustic alkali, the material and reagent that was used are:
a) Beaker
b) Clam and Stand conical flask
c) Pipette Separating funnel
d) 95% ethanol
e) Ph enophthalein indicator
f) Barium chloride and
g) Hydrochloric acid
After the analysis, it was observed that the percentage of water content was 20%, while the free caustic alkali was 0 ” 05%. Â Also after the analysis, it was found that soap that contains high caustic alkali will cause rashes and irritation of the skin. Â And the one that contain high moisture will now shrink and will not fume well. Â The soap (Lux) Analysed will be used for washing and general removal of dirty. Â It will also enhance removal of dirty. Â It also reduces the surface tension, and serves to remove odour and greasy surfaces.
