- Covalent bond or Molecular bond or Homopolar bond : A chemical bond formed between two non-metallic elements by the mutual sharing of one or more electron pairs is called covalent bond.

- Pure ethanoic acid is a corrosive colourless liquid having strong smell like that of vinegar.
- A chemical reaction between ethanoic acid and any alcohol to form an acetate of the alcohol (commonly called as ester), which is a sweet smelling product, is called esterification.

Soap is a sodium salt
of long chain carboxylic acids (fatty acids), which has cleansing
action in water.
Synthetic detergents
(soap less soaps) are either sodium salts of long chain benzene
sulphonic acid or sodium salt of long chain alkyl hydrogen sulphate,
which show cleansing properties in water
The process of breaking down of bigger droplets of oil or grease into smaller droplets is called emulsification and the substance used to do so is called emulsifier. . The long chain of hydrocarbon in soap/ detergent is repelled by water molecules and is called hydrophobic.
However, it is attracted by oil or grease molecules. Sodium ions, forming the short ionic part in soap/detergent are attracted by water molecules and is called hydrophilic. However, it is repelled by oil or grease molecules.
The colloidal particles of soap suspended in water form clusters, which are commonly called soap micelles. Soap loses its cleansing action in hard water and forms a sticky scum. Synthetic detergents lather even in hard water and hence can be used for cleaning.
