Silicate
(gcide) | Silicate \Sil"i*cate\, n.[Cf. F. silicate.] (Chem.)
A salt of silicic acid.
[1913 Webster]
Note: In mineralogical chemistry the silicates include; the
unisilicates or orthosilicates, salts of orthosilicic
acid; the bisilicates or metasilicates, salts of
metasilicic acid; the polysilicates or acid silicates,
salts of the polysilicic acids; the basic silicates or
subsilicates, in which the equivalent of base is
greater than would be required to neutralize the acid;
and the hydrous silicates, including the zeolites and
many hydrated decomposition products.

[1913 Webster]Soap \Soap\, n. [OE. sope, AS. s[=a]pe; akin to D. zeep, G.
seife, OHG. seifa, Icel. s[=a]pa, Sw. s?pa, Dan. s?be, and
perhaps to AS. s[imac]pan to drip, MHG. s[imac]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.
[1913 Webster]
Note: In general, soaps are of two classes, hard and soft.
Calcium, magnesium, lead, etc., form soaps, but they
are insoluble and useless.
[1913 Webster]
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.
[1913 Webster]
