Firstly, we tried to boil water in the kettle and added detergent to see if the detergentwould evaporate in the heat but it didnt. We then added detergent to water and boiled in on the stove but the detergent didn't evaporate as predicited.

Because the soap in the water reduce the surface tension in the water. The soap gets in between the molecules making in difficult for them to stick together. This makes the Hot Surface of the container you are boiling the liquid in separate the molecules from one another and bubbles to form.
