Question: what is the molecular formula of detergent?
Answer: Detergents usually made out of surfactants. Basicly, if we assume the molecule as a chain, one end of the chain prefers to stay in the water (hydrophilic) while the other end prefers to stay out of the water (hydrophobic). CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH2-COO(-) Na(+).
