    Why does my expensive bubble bath 'disappear' the moment I add the slightest bit of soap?

    Question #20549. Asked by Jane. (Jul 12 02 6:59 PM)


    Barrow boy

    Bubble bath and soap are opposite types of chemical components called surfacants. The bubble bath surfacants are positively charged while those of soap are negative. When they mix the foam collapses.
