Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given detergent molecules which are biodegradable are to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Detergent molecules have polar and non-polar sides which help in the dissolution of non-polar molecules to the non-polar side and polar molecules to the polar sides.

The detergent molecules having straight chain can be decomposed and are biodegradable.
