  2. Degassing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degassing

    Gases are removed for various reasons. Chemists remove gases from solvents when the compounds they are working on are possibly air- or oxygen-sensitive (air-free technique), or when bubble formation at solid-liquid interfaces becomes a problem. The formation of gas bubbles when a liquid is frozen can also be undesirable, necessitating degassing ...

  3. Dishwashing liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dishwashing_liquid

    Dishwashing liquid (washing-up liquid in British English), also known as dishwashing soap, dish detergent, or dish soap, is a detergent used in dishwashing. Dishwashing detergent for dishwashers comes in various forms such as cartridges, gels, liquids, packs, powder, and tablets. [ 1 ]

  4. Dishwasher detergent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dishwasher_detergent

    There are specific examples of chemical reactions we use in our everyday lives. For example, a dishwasher detergent uses sodium hypochlorite and sodium carbonate (simple bleach) in a chemical reaction to clean the dishes. Dishes washed in cold water are less clean than dishes washed in hot water. [citation needed]

  5. Detergent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detergent

    Detergents. A detergent is a surfactant or a mixture of surfactants with cleansing properties when in dilute solutions. [1] There are a large variety of detergents, a common family being the alkylbenzene sulfonates, which are soap-like compounds that are more soluble in hard water, because the polar sulfonate (of detergents) is less likely than the polar carboxylate (of soap) to bind to ...

  6. Phosphates in detergent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphates_in_detergent

    Phosphates in detergent refers to the use of phosphates as an ingredient in a detergent product. The advantage of using phosphates in a consumer laundry detergent or dishwashing detergent is that they make detergents more efficient by chelating calcium and magnesium ions. [1]

  7. Alkylbenzene sulfonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkylbenzene_sulfonate

    Within LAS itself the detergency of the various isomers are fairly similar, [13] [14] however their physical properties (Krafft point, foaming etc.) are noticeably different. [ 15 ] [ 16 ] In particular the Krafft point of the high 2-phenyl product (i.e. the least branched isomer) remains below 0 °C up to 25% LAS whereas the low 2-phenyl cloud ...

  8. Soap bubble - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soap_bubble

    The gas inside a bubble is less dense than air because it is mostly water vapor. Water vapor is a gas that is formed when water molecules evaporate. When water molecules evaporate, they escape from the liquid state and enter the gas state. In the gas state, water molecules are further apart than they are in the liquid state.

  9. Sparging (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparging_(chemistry)

    Sparging introduces a gas that has little or no partial pressure of the gas(es) to be removed, and increases the area of the gas-liquid interface, which encourages some of the dissolved gas(es) to diffuse into the sparging gas before the sparging gas escapes from the liquid. Many sparging processes, such as solvent removal, use air as the ...
