I am profoundly grateful to everyone who contributed to the successful completion of this project. I am especially grateful to my Supervisor (Name), the Head of Department (Name), and the Lecturers in the Department of Science Laboratory Technology (SLT) for their invaluable guidance and support. I also acknowledge the contributions of authors and scholars whose works on Analysis of a Soap Product (lux) provided essential insights. Special thanks go to my study area (and any funding organizations, if applicable) for their financial assistance. I am equally thankful to stakeholders, including mentors, teachers, and colleagues, for their encouragement and support. Finally, I deeply appreciate my family and friends for their patience and unwavering support throughout this journey. Your contributions have been instrumental in making this research a reality.
The soap that is used for the analysis is Lux. The analytical tests carried out on the soap are moisture content and free caustic alkali. For the determination of the moisture content, the materials and reagent that was used are:
- The Porcelain dish
- Glass rod and
- Hot air oven
The reagents are:
- The petroleum spirit and
- Sodium acetate
For the determination of the free caustic alkali, the material and reagent that was used are:
- Beaker
- Clam and Stand conical flask
- Pipette Separating funnel
- 95% ethanol
- Ph enophthalein indicator
- Barium chloride and
- Hydrochloric acid
After the analysis, it was observed that the percentage of water content was 20%, while the free caustic alkali was 0 ” 05%. Also after the analysis, it was found that soap that contains high caustic alkali will cause rashes and irritation of the skin. And the one that contain high moisture will now shrink and will not fume well. The soap (Lux) Analysed will be used for washing and general removal of dirty. It will also enhance removal of dirty. It also reduces the surface tension, and serves to remove odour and greasy surfaces.
