To answer your question properly we need to define what type of soap you are referring to. I will answer assuming that you are referring to melt and pour soap.
Melt & Pour Soap
1. Heat - Stove top, microwave oven, placed in direct sunlight
2. Water - Soap placed in a spot where there are excessive water will dissolve the soap bar into the water, once the water dries out of the soap it will become partially solid depending on the amount of moisture in the soap
3. Alcohol - since alcohol is used in the soap making process and it is used to minimize bubbles after pouring into the mold it will have a "melting" effect on the soap, it could only be temporary
Cold Process Soap
1. Water - Soap bar placed in water will dissolve into the water, but may not return to a solid for a long time, it may remain mushy at best.
Soaps with a higher glycerin content tend to melt faster because glycerin is a humectant that attracts moisture. Transparent glycerin-based soaps or melt-and-pour soap bases may melt quicker compared to traditional cold-process soaps with lower glycerin content.
Soap is basically made up of fatty acids, when heated up in a microwave the fat simply melts just like butter would

Does hand soap have an reversible change or irreversible?
Most changes in hand soap are reversible, meaning it can go back to its original state. For example, if a solid bar of soap melts when heated, it can solidify again when cooled. However, if the soap is burned (irreversible change), it cannot return to its original form.

Ice cream with lower fat content generally melts faster because fat helps stabilize the mixture. Brands with a higher ratio of water to fat will melt more quickly.
What degree does wax melt the fastest?
Generally, paraffin wax melts the fastest, as it has a lower melting point than other types of wax like beeswax or soy wax. The melting point of paraffin wax is around 130-150°F (54-65°C), which allows it to melt relatively quickly when heated.
