Surfactants, having both cationic and anionic centres attached to the same molec
Surfactants, having both cationic and anionic centres attached to the same molecule, are called:
- A. cationic surfactant
- B. anionic surfactant
- C. zwitter-ionic surfactants
- D. neutral surfactants
Step-by-step solution
Surfactants that contain both cationic (positively charged) and anionic (negatively charged) centers in the same molecule are known as zwitter-ionic surfactants. They are amphoteric, meaning they can act as either acids or bases depending on pH.
