Solution

  • A soap is a water-soluble compound which is made via a process called saponification by the reaction between sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide with vegetable or animal oil (fats).
  • Paint is a substance that is made up of solid coloring matter suspended in a liquid medium and is applied as a protective or decorative coating on the surface. The use of the paint is to protect, color, or provide texture to the surface on which it is applied.
  • There are two types of paint: Water-based paint and oil-based paint.
  • Emulsion paint is a type of water-based paint, which contains small polymer particles that have pigments inside them.
