Answer:

The Given statement is False.

The molecules of detergent are made of long chains of Carboxylic acids.

✩DETERGENT✩

Detergents are generally ammonium or sulphonate salts of long chain carboxylic acids.

Each detergent molecule has two ends the hydrophobic tail end and the hydrophilic head end.

Detergents are inorganic and are not bio-degradable.

It can form latter in hard water.

The hydrophobic tail end gets attached to the dirt .

The Hydrophilic head end gets suspended in the water.

Detergent is more effective for removing dirt but it is harmful for the nature since it is non - biodegradable and kills organisms like earthworm if water containing detergent is poured to soil after washing
