Is there a chemical reaction when detergent cleans grime or grease or dirt?
Mostly the changes are not chemical at all, but physical changes. It does depend on what kind of stain and what kind of detergent. Soap itself only works by physical changes, and not by chemical means at all. However, things like bleach or other bleaching agents (such as whiteners) do cause chemical reactions to remove stains.Perhaps somebody can add some information here about how bleach and whitening agents work?See the Related Questions to the left for more information about how soap works.
What do concentration surface area and temperature have in common?
They can all affect the rate of a chemical reaction.
What does a nerve agent affect in the body?
Nerve agents effect the junctions between nerve cells. Nerve agents prevent signals crossing the nerve junctions so all communication between nerve cells stops and no signals can get through from the brain.
What is the effect of ATP on the rate of ATP production?
Like all chemical reactions the production of ATP will slow down if there is more ATP are ready made.
Why do all isotopes of an element have the sames chemical properties?
All isotopes of the same element have the same chemical properties due to the following reasons: * they all have the same electrons in the OUTERMOST shell. * they all have the same electronic configuration.

What is the synergistic effect?
The synergistic effect describes a situation in which organic structures interacting results in an overall effect greater than the sum of all of the individual effects. This term can be applied to chemical substances or living organisms.
