I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. It would be CH3(CH2)14CO2-NA+ that would represent the structure of a soap. A soap is a salt of a fatty acid. Soaps for cleaning are obtained by treating vegetable or animal oils and fats with a strong base, such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide in an aqueous solution.
