Abstract
The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of manganese caprylate in alkanols was determined from conductivity and viscosity measurements. The results show that the CMC is independent of the dielectric constant of the solvent. The degree of dissociation and the dissociation constant data show that the soap behaves as a simple electrolyte and is ionic in nature. The ionic character of manganese caprylate has also been confirmed by spectrophotometric measurements. The results of viscosity measurements show that the values of the molar volume are in good agreement with each other and that the soap molecules do not aggregate appreciably below the CMC.
