Ludwigshafen (ots)

So you try to get your greasy chicken fingers clean without soap -
only water - and it does not seem to help much. The water either 
bubbles or rolls off the oil and your fingers stay greasy. This is 
because water has a special characteristic: its surface tension. Our 
Chemical Reporter explains how soap can help. In entertaining weekly 
episodes our Chemical Reporter answers questions on Chemistry in our 
everyday life.
