CH3(CH2)12COONa.<\/p>\n<p>Soap is a salt of a long-chain fatty acid. The most common type of soap is sodium stearate, which is made from stearic acid and sodium hydroxide. Stearic acid is a long-chain fatty acid with the chemical formula CH3(CH2)16COOH. Sodium hydroxide is a base with the chemical formula NaOH. When stearic acid and sodium hydroxide are combined, they react to form sodium stearate and water. Sodium stearate is the soap, and it is what gives soap its cleansing properties.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are not soaps. Option A, CH3(CH2)12COOCH3, is a triglyceride.
