Hey guys and gals, for one of my classes I need to create value out of bars of soap. This could be any type of value etc. Economic, social, sentimental, any type of value. Any ideas?

shave bar of soap and then mix with gasoline and heat up until a very thick consistency. pour off any liquid on the top. you now have napalm.

It has to be innovative. Like you can't use it for the purpose it already has

The clear layer is glycerin. You can mix glycerin back in when you make soap. Or you can skim the glycerin off.

You can mix glycerin with nitric acid to make nitroglyerin.

You can mix nitroglycerin with sodium nitrate and sawdust to make dynamite.

You can blow up bridges.

You can mix nitroglycerin with more nitric acid and and parafin and make gelatin explosives.

You can blow up a building, easy.

With enough soap, you can blow up the whole world.

Sell soap, make fight club, blow up major credit card companies with remaining soap that you just happened to make into nitroglycerine.
