- detergents are synthetic while soaps are not
- detergents are more soluble in water than soaps
-
scum is precipitated when soaps are used with hard water but not with stergents
- soaps from soluble saits with ions causing hardness of water while detergents do not
- soaps are in bars while detergents are in powder form
