The law of conservation of matter says that the mass of the reactants will equal the mass of the products. In the case of making soap, the general reaction is fat + sodium hydroxide -->soap + glycerin. In this example, the mass of the reactants is 890 g + 115 g = 1005 g. The mass of the products is x grams of soap + 90 g glycerin. Since the mass of the products has to be the same as the mass of the reactants (1005g), one can figure out the mass of the soap. It will be 1005 g - 90 g = 915 g of soap.

Is glycerine vegetarian?
It depends on what form it takes. Glycerin can be synthetically produced, or derived from animal products or non-animal products -- so without knowing how it was made, you can't tell. Most companies that use glycerin in their products (i.e., Colgate toothpaste) will state if the glycerin is vegetarian or not. If it doesn't say, it's best to stay clear if you're a vegetarian. Basicly i think Glycerin does not have animal fat in because if it was made in chicken it would'nt it would say animal fat in it.
