A goldfish will probably die in soapy water, unless you change the water really really fast completely with nice, clean, no-chlorine drinkable water. All the harmful stuff in it will kill the goldfish!

How do you test insoluble matter in soap?

To test for insoluble matter in soap, you can perform a simple solubility test by dissolving a small amount of the soap in water and observing if any residue remains. If there is residue, filter it out and dry it to determine the amount of insoluble matter present in the soap. The percentage of insoluble matter can then be calculated by dividing the weight of the residue by the initial weight of the soap sample and expressing it as a percentage.
