Identify the functional group in the following detergent molecule. $C H_{3} - (C H_{2})_{10} - C H_{2} O S O_{3}^{-} N a^{+}$

Open in App

Solution

The detergent molecule is-
$C H_{3} - (C H_{2})_{10} - C H_{2} - O - S O_{3}^{2 -} N a^{+}$
Here the hydrocarbon chain which is hydrophobic in nature is $C H_{3} - (C H_{2})_{10} - C H_{2} -$
The functional group is hydrophillic in nature is $- S O_{4}^{2 -}$ .
