Detergent that gets degraded by the action of bacteria are known as -
1. Non-biodegradable
2. Condensation
3. Biodegradable
4. Elastomers
Synthetic detergents are better than soaps because:
1. | Synthetic detergents work both in soft water and hard water. |
2. | Soaps work both in soft water and hard water. |
3. | Synthetic detergents work only in hard water. |
4. | Soaps work only in hard water. |
A space rocket is propelled by:
1. An automobilic engine
2. Nuclear Engine

The chemical added to soaps to impart antiseptic properties is :
1. Salvarsan
2. Bithional
3. Paracetamol
4. Iodine
The correct statement among the following during the cleansing action of soaps is:
1. | Hydrophobic parts of the stearate ions attach themselves to the oil droplets. |
2. | Hydrophilic parts of the stearate ions project outside the oil droplets. |
3. | Hydrophilic parts of the stearate ions attach themselves to the oil droplets. |
4. | Both (1) and (2) |

1. a and b
2. a and c
3. a and d
4. b and d
Choose the correct statement:
1. | Detergents that can not be degraded by bacteria are called biodegradable detergents. |
2. | Biodegradable detergents have straight hydrocarbon chains. |
3. | Detergents that can be degraded by bacteria are called non-biodegradable detergents. |
4. | Biodegradable detergents have highly branched hydrocarbon chains. |
Soaps do not work in hard water because:
1. | Calcium and magnesium ions displace sodium or potassium from their salts and form insoluble calcium or magnesium salts of fatty acids. |
2. | Sodium or potassium ions displace calcium and magnesium from their salts and form insoluble calcium or magnesium salts of fatty acids. |
3. | Calcium and magnesium ions displace sodium or potassium from their salts and form insoluble sodium or potassium salts of fatty acids. |
4. | None of the above. |
The correct statement among the following is:
a. | Cationic detergents have germicidal properties. |
