How to make detergent dissolve
Detergents are made of surfactants. These molecules are composed of water-soluble and water-insoluble parts that reduce water tension. The surfactants bind with the stains on your clothes and pull them into the water to free them of the matter. For detergent to work, it has to dissolve in water, at least partially. Placing the drops of detergent in the water first helps you dissolve them faster.
