Question 75

Multiple Choice

Scenario 3-1In the early and mid-1800s, soaps were made from animal fats. The perishable quality of the soap, however, meant that manufacturers could only sell a product with regional appeal. This changed when soap makers began to use vegetable fats and perfume in the soap-making process. According to Procter & Gamble, one batch of this vegetable-based soap was left to mix too long. The result was a product that floated in water due to an excess amount of air. The company turned this into a selling point and, in 1882, launched one of the first soaps with the potential for national sales-Ivory soap-with the slogans "It floats" and "99-44/100 percent pure."
-(Scenario 3-1) To which of the following eras does Ivory soaps belong? 


A)  The preindustrialization era 
B)  The industrialization era 
C)  The P.T. Barnum era 
D)  The Great Depression
