What is soap?
A SOAP is the sodium or
Potassium salt formed when a
Fatty acid that contains 12 to 18
carbon atoms per molecule is
neutralized by an alkali
What is general formula for soap?
The general formula of
soap is RCOO – Na + or R
COO – K + where R is an
alkyl group containing 12 to
18 carbon atoms.
R can be saturated or
unsaturated hydrocarbons
iii)State two examples of soap
• Sodium palmitate
• Potassium stearate
What is saponification?
SAPONIFICATION is a
process involves boiling fats
or oils with concentrated
sodium hydroxide
solution or concentrated
potassium hydroxide solution
Explain the preparation of soap as
shown in the diagram
• Oil or fat is boiled with
concentrated sodium
hydroxide to produce
glycerol and soap
What is detergent?
DETERGENT is the salt
formed when an alkyl
hydrogen sulphate is
neutralized by an alkali
The general formula of
detergents are
where R represent a
Long-chain hydrocarbon
State two examples of detergent
• Sodium alkyl sulphate
• Sodium alkyl benzene
sulphonate
How is detergent prepared?
• A long chain hydrocarbon
obtained from petroleum
fractions is converted into
organic acid.
• The organic acid is neutralise
with NaOH to form detergent.
QUESTION 3
Describe the cleansing action of
soap or detergent.
a) State 3 abilities of both soap
and detergent that enable them
to act as cleansing agents
i. Ability to lower the surface
tension of water
ii. To emulsify oil or grease,
and break them into smaller
droplets
iii. To hold them in suspension
in water, so that they do not
redeposit on the surface of the
cloth

What does hard water contains?
• Hard water contains
2+
calcium ion, Ca or
2+.
magnesium ion, Mg
Why do soaps form scum with
hard water?
• Soap reacts with calcium
ion, Ca2+ or magnesium ion,
2+
Mg in hard water to form
insoluble salt, called scum
Why is soap not effective in hard
water?
• Because formation of scum
reduce the amount of soap for
cleaning and thus wastage of
soap occur.
Why is detergent more effective than
soap in hard water?
• Detergent form soluble salt with
calcium ion, Ca2+ or
2+
magnesium ion, Mg in hard
water.
• Therefore the cleaning power is
not affected by hard water.

MODERN MEDICINES
a) What is modern medicine?
Medicines that are made by
scientists in the laboratory
1. ANALGESICS
FUNCTIONS:
Relieves pain without affecting
consciousness
1. ANALGESICS
EXAMPLES:
ASPIRIN – for inflammation such
as arthritic pain and dental pain.
The active ingredient is
Acetylsalicylic acid.
1. ANALGESICS
The structure is:
COOH
O
CH3
C
O
1. ANALGESICS - EXAMPLES
CODEINE – used in headache
tablets and cough medicines
PARACETAMOL – relieves
moderate pain
2. ANTIBIOTICS
FUNCTIONS:
Kill or inhibit growth of infectious
bacteria
2. ANTIBIOTICS
EXAMPLES:
PENICILIN – to kill bacteria that
cause tuberculosis (TB) and
pneumonia
STREPTOMYCIN – used to treat
whooping cough and pneumonia
3. PSYCHOTHERAPEUTIC MEDICINES
FUNCTIONS:
Control symptoms of mental
illness
EXAMPLES:
STIMULANTS – to reduce fatigue
and elevate mood e.g.
Amphetamine
3. PSYCHOTHERAPEUTIC MEDICINES
ANTIDEPRESSANT – to reduce
tension and anxiety e.g.
Tranquilisers and barbiturates
ANTIPSYCHOTIC – to treat
psychiatric illness such as
schizophrenia e.g. clozapine
WHY SHOULD YOU TAKE FULL COURSE
OF ANTIBIOTICS?
•To ensure all the bacteria are killed
•the bacteria may become more
resistant to the antibiotic.
•When this happens, the antibiotic is
no longer effective.
•a different and stronger antibiotic to
fight the same infection is needed
