I hope this helps!!Which is a better cleansing agent in hard water: soap or detergent?
Between soap and detergent, detergent works better in hard water. This is because soap forms insoluble salts with the metal ions dissolved in water. So until all of the metal ions have been precipitated out, only then can soap function as a cleansing agent properly. Detergent does not behave this way. The salts of detergent with these metal ions are soluble in water so detergent can still function well as a cleansing agent even in hard water.
