The substance that is pumped away during saponification is the lye which at this point is referred to as 'half-spent lye.' As it is pumped away, it is added to the reactor.

What is the formula to calculate saponification number?

Insoluble soaps are not likely to exist, they won't work when not IN water. For more you can trust on this: his process is called saponification: fat + sodium hydroxide -> Sodium salts of fatty acid (Soap) + glycerol


What molecules are released when fat undergoes a hydrolysis reaction?

A fat molecule forms when glycerol joins with three fatty acids as three water molecule are removed during dehydration reaction.


What is formed by the dehydra tion synthesis of three fatty acids and glycerol?

Dehydration synthesis is a generalized form for a condensation reaction. During a condensation reaction, glycerol and 3 fatty acid tails come together to form a triglyceride.


What is the catalyst needed for saponification?

Thymol is a good catalyst in saponification. I personally used it during chem prac class :)
