Answer:
Cleansing Action of Soaps and Detergents. Most of the dirt is oily in nature and oil does not dissolve in water. The molecule of soap constitutes sodium or potassium salts of long-chain carboxylic acids. In the case of soaps, the carbon chain dissolves in oil and the ionic end dissolves in water
One end of soap molecules love water - they are hydrophilic. The other end of soap molecues hate water - they are hydrophobic. ... These drops of oil are suspended in the water. This is how soap cleans your hands - it causes drops of grease and dirt to be pulled off your hands and suspended in water.
