water and oil do not mix the chemical compounds are just opposite
Water is not effective in cleaning up grease spills because grease is nonpolar and does not mix with water. Water molecules are polar and cannot break down the nonpolar grease molecules. This causes the grease to float on top of the water, making it difficult to remove.
1. grease contains lipids and fats and water and fats do not mix. 2. it is an organic compound
Dry cleaning remove grease and dirt by using ultrasonicwave
Household soap. hot water and elbow grease.
With soap and water or cleaning spray
The fluids used to dry-clean clothing remove grease when water cannot because it chemically bonds thus making it invisible to other materials
You can use a paper towel to dry off most of the grease. You can then use soap and water to clean off the rest of the grease.
Baking soda will react chemically with vinegar, so cleaning a vinegar spill with baking soda will, if sufficient baking soda is applied, react with all the vinegar and completely eliminate all that vinegar and its smell. The "active ingredient" in vinegar is acetic acid, which is CH3COOH, and its mixed in with water. Baking soda is NaHCO3. The reaction is as follows: CH3COOH + NaHCO3 => NaC2H3O2 + H2CO3
The reason detergents are more effective than soap for cleaning hard water has to do with their ingredients and their function. Most detergents have cleaning properties that are able to combat hard water and mildew. The function of soap, however, is less complex. The function of water is to make water even wetter than what it is. This does not necessarily mean it contains cleaning properties.
First, turn off the burner. If you can fit a large pot over the spill, then do that to contain the fire. If the spill is larger than that you can pour baking soda on it and cover it with a very heavy blanket. WHAT EVER YOU DO, DO NOT POUR WATER ON IT.
water lettuce is great for cleaning the water of decomposition byproducts
Yes, Clorox is effective with hot water. Clorox can kill just about any germ out there and is great to use for cleaning up spills.
Water cannot interact with grease,due to its high surface tension, so when the water is removed from the clothing after cleaning it, the grease remains. The fluids used to dry clean clothing are actually chemical solvents. They dissolve the grease, so when the solvent is removed, the grease is also removed.
