Soaps get precipitated as insoluble calcium and magnesium soaps in hard water but detergents do not. Therefore, soaps but not synthetic detergents can be used to check the hardness of water.
The advantages of synthetic detergents over soaps are :Synthetic detergents can be used even in case of hard water whereas soaps fail to do so. Unlike soaps, detergents do not form insoluble calcium and magnesium salts in hard water. They give lather in hard water also.Synthetic detergents can be used in the acidic medium while soaps fail to do so because of their hydrolysis to free acids.Synthetic detergents are soluble in water and hence form more lather than soaps.Synthetic detergents have a better cleansing action than soaps.Detergents do not cause irritation to the skin while soaps have this problem.
soaps are not equaly good as detergents because soaps are good for oils but dissolves in water it doesnt work as well and detergents doent dissolv in watter making the detergent last longer and works better.

Detergent is better for laundry than soap because it is specifically designed to clean fabrics in washing machines. Detergents contain surfactants that help lift dirt and stains from clothing more effectively than soaps, which can leave residue on clothing and may not rinse out completely in a machine. Additionally, detergents work well in both hard and soft water, whereas soap can leave a scum or film on clothes in hard water.
Soaps are formed by the reaction between an alkali and the fatty acids found in vegetable oils and animal fats. Detergents are synthetic cleaners so by definition detergents are “soapless”.
