Detergent is a chemical substance that is found in powdered and liquid form, and is used as a cleansing agent.
It is used for removing stains from clothes and dishes, and detergent can be in a liquid form to wash bathrooms also.
If there is scarcity of oleaginous matters in soap and in powdered detergents, this applies to the differences in soap and detergents.
