Difference between---<br> soap and detergent

guapka [62]

Answer:

"Soaps are made from natural ingredients, such as plant oils (coconut, vegetable, palm, pine) or acids derived from animal fat. Detergents, on the other hand, are synthetic, man-made derivatives. While soap is limited in its applications, detergents can be formulated to include other ingredients for all sorts of cleaning purposes. Perhaps the most common and versatile of these ingredients are surfactants … surface active agents.

The main difference between soap and detergent is the ingredients. Soaps are made with biodegradable ingredients such as oils, lye and fats. ... Both clean clothes well, but detergents are more effective on stains and with brightening clothes. However, soap is kinder on the environment and skin. "

Hope this helps

What's the easiest way to find balance in a chemical equation?

ivann1987 [24]

Well not calculus because that has nothing, well mostly nothing to do with balancing chemical equation, so B or C. Now for me personally B is way faster, though C is sometimes faster if you get lucky the way to solve it is B

Assuming it behaves as an ideal gas, calculate the density of sulfur dioxide, so2, at stp.

Arisa [49]

Hello!

At Standard Pressure and Temperature, an ideal gas has a molar density of 0,04464 mol/L.

So, we need to apply a simple conversion factor to calculate the density of Sulfur Dioxide using the molar mass of Sulfur Dioxide.

$\frac{0,04464 mol SO_2}{1 L SO_2}* \frac{64,066 g SO_2}{1 mol SO_2}=2,8599 g/L$

So, the Density of Sulfur Dioxide (SO₂) at STP is 2,8599 g/L
