Grease and oil are non>polar and insoluble in water. These fatty acids are less soluble than the sodium or potassium salts and form a precipitate or soap dirt. Because of this, soaps are ineffective in acidic water. Also, soaps form insoluble salts in hard water, such as water containing magnesium, calcium, or iron.
