MCQ
Salts of alkylbenzene sulphonates are called:
- ASoaps
- ✓Detergents
- CBoth $(A)$ and $(B)$
- DNone of the above
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Detergents
Detergents is a mixture of surfacts with cleaning properties in dilute solution.
These substances are usually Alkylbenzene $-$ sulfonates, which are more soluble in hard water than soap, because the polar sulfonate is less likely than polar.
Carboxylate $($soap$)$ to bind calcium and other ions in hard water.
