Hydrophilic part is the the COO- (carboxylate) ie., the head part whereas the hydrophobic part is the long chain of hydrocarbon ie.,the tail part which is insoluble in water (due to non polar nature)

Polar part is hydrophillic n oil soluble part is hydrophobic in synthetic detergent.

Explanation:

  • A synthetic detergent is the sodium salt of sulphonic acid which has cleansing properties in water.
  • The structure of a synthetic detergent is similar to that of soaps. It consists of a long hydrocarbon chain which is hydrophobic and a short ionic part which is hydrophilic.
  • Synthetic detergent is any synthetic substances, other than soap, that is an effective cleanser and functions equally well as a surface active agent in hard water or soft water.
  • It is a non-soap cleanser that exerts its effect by lowering the surface tension of the aqueous cleansing mixture.
