   Soap \Soap\, n. [OE. sope, AS. s[be]pe; akin to D. zeep, G.
      seife, OHG. seifa, Icel. s[be]pa, Sw. s[?]pa, Dan. s[?]be,
      and perhaps to AS. s[c6]pan to drip, MHG. s[c6]fen, and L.
      sebum tallow. Cf. {Saponaceous}.]
      A substance which dissolves in water, thus forming a lather,
      and is used as a cleansing agent. Soap is produced by
      combining fats or oils with alkalies or alkaline earths,
      usually by boiling, and consists of salts of sodium,
      potassium, etc., with the fatty acids (oleic, stearic,
      palmitic, etc.). See the Note below, and cf.
      {Saponification}. By extension, any compound of similar
      composition or properties, whether used as a cleaning agent
      or not.
  
      Note: In general, soaps are of two classes, hard and soft.
               Calcium, magnesium, lead, etc., form soaps, but they
               are insoluble and useless.
  
                        The purifying action of soap depends upon the
                        fact that it is decomposed by a large quantity of
                        water into free alkali and an insoluble acid
                        salt. The first of these takes away the fatty
                        dirt on washing, and the latter forms the soap
                        lather which envelops the greasy matter and thus
                        tends to remove it.                        --Roscoe &
                                                                              Schorlemmer.
  
      {Castile soap}, a fine-grained hard soap, white or mottled,

      {Hard soap}, any one of a great variety of soaps, of
            different ingredients and color, which are hard and
            compact. All solid soaps are of this class.
  
      {Lead soap}, an insoluble, white, pliable soap made by
            saponifying an oil (olive oil) with lead oxide; -- used
            externally in medicine. Called also {lead plaster},
            {diachylon}, etc.
  
      {Marine soap}. See under {Marine}.
  
      {Pills of soap} (Med.), pills containing soap and opium.

            silica, alumina, powdered pumice, etc., which assists
            mechanically in the removal of dirt.

            bleaching.
  
      {Silicated soap}, a cheap soap containing water glass (sodium
