Question

explain cleansing action of soap and detergent ​

Answer 1

One end of soap molecules love water - they are hydrophilic. The other end of soap molecues hate water - they are hydrophobic. Hydrophobic ends of soap molecule all attach to the oil. ... This is how soap cleans your hands - it causes drops of grease and dirt to be pulled off your hands and suspended in water.

Water alone can't clean clothes because it won't attach to molecules of grease and dirt. Detergent is different. The surfactants it contains are made of molecules that have two different ends. One end is strongly attracted to water; the other is attracted to oily substances like grease
