Mineral oil can not be saponified.it is bcoz it doesnt contain acids necessery to produce phenomenon..animal fats and vegetable oils can be saponified due to presence of acid in them...
yes it can
Oil does not meet the definition of a mineral, i.e., a solid, definite chemical formula, formed by nature, with a crystalline structure.
I can't tell you why mineral oil is carcinogenic but I can tell you that when given to lab rats in small doses, they die. This includes topical, injected, and oral doeses. The four fastest ways for anything to be absorbed into your body are: 1) IV 2)through the skin, 3) under the tongue, and 4) oral digestion. Mineral oil is basically crude oil. Crude oil is also what motor oil is, mineral oil is just more refined than motor oil. Petroleum jelly is also basically the same thing only hardened. It has been proven that mineral oil is carcinogenic. With that in mind, think about all the skin care products you use on you or your children that contain mineral oil; especially as a main ingredient. Baby oil is mineral oil with fregrance added. If you use baby oil to tan or for "moisture" you are slathering yourself up with one big cancer-causing cocktail. Mineral oil is used in these products because it is cheap, it is readily available, and it is a great emulsifier. Mineral oil is a giant molecule that has lots of attachment sites for water to cling to. When this happens the molecule gets really fluffy and looks creamy like lotions. It is a great, cheap filler to cosmetic and personal care producers. Want to find baby products and other personal care products that contain no mineral oil, or anything that causes cancer for that matter?
Oil is not a minerl because:It is not solidIt is composed of organic substances.
You "crack" it.

Saponification value is the amount of pure sodium hydroxide needed to saponified 100 grams of oil No. saponified castor oil is from 12.5 to 13 grams
ethanol allows oil to be able to mix with water.
It aids in the detection of the presence of glycerides of fatty acids containing less than 16 to 18 carbon atoms. It can also indicate adulteration of the oil with unsaponifiable matter, such as mineral oil.
Glycerin and soap are the bye-products of saponification. The saponification value of glycerine are values of the percentage of lye it takes to convert one unit of fat, oil or fatty acid into glycerin.
This value is between 4 and 10.
