The density, molar volume, and apparent molar volume of Cu (II) soap derived from mustard and groundnut oils treated and untreated in non-aqueous solvent benzene has been determined at constant temperature 298.15 K. The results were used to determine the critical micelle concentration (CMC), the effect of chain length of the soap molecule on CMC and soap-solvent interactions. The conclusions with regard to solutesolute and solute-solvent interaction have been discussed in terms of well-known Masson's. This vital information plays an important role in various industrial and biological applications.
