Correct answer: B. The soap is dissolved in alcohol and then the alcohol is evaporated out.
- A. Glycerol and gum are added to the soap.
- B. The soap is dissolved in alcohol and then the alcohol is evaporated out.
- C. Glycerine is added to the alcoholic solution of soap.
- D. A saturated solution of sodium chloride is added to the soap.
