उत्तर
Soaps are sodium or potassium salt of long-chain fatty acids. They are prepared by the reaction of a long-chain fatty acid with either NaOH or KOH. This reaction is known as the saponification reaction. Among the given sets of materials, as soap can be prepared by the reaction between sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and turpentine oil (long-chain fatty acid).
Hence, the correct answer is Turpentine oil and sodium hydroxide
