Answer»

Solution :Any liquid of low surface TENSION can EASILY spread out as athin film because it.s surface energy is low. Low VALUE of surface tension also helps the liquid to penetrate narrow spaces or pores. When detergent is added to water, it.s surface tension is LOWERED. This explains the improvement in the cleaning property of the detergent solutions, compared to water.
