Question
Chapter 3, Problem 1CR
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The definition of chemistry should be determined on the basis of the text of the chapter 1 and after completed few more chapters, whether the definition of chemistry is changed or not. Whether you have better appreciation for what chemists do or not should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Chemistry is concerned with the study of matter. It involves study of chemical and physical properties of different substances and also to use different

The main difference between one soap and another soap isthe length (number of carbons) of the carboxylic acid. However, if a soap irritates your skin, they mostlikely used too much lye.Detergents have the same chemical structure as soaps except for the functional group. Detergentshave sulfate (R-SO4H) and phosphate (R-PO4H2) functional groups.
