The soap formed by the reaction of triglycerides and NaOH is :
triglycerides + NaOH + water → soap + glycerol
Triglyceride ester bonds are broken. To form a fatty acid salt, one component of the preceding ester bond binds with the cation of the chemical salt (soap). The remainder bonds to the hydroxyl group of the chemical salt to form an alcohol molecule.
The chemical reaction is :
(C16H31O2)3C3H5 + 3 NaOH → C3H5(OH)3 + 3 C16H31O2Na
Saponification is the chemical reaction that results in soap. During the procedure, animal or vegetable fat is converted into soap (a fatty acid) and alcohol. An alkali solution in water (e.g., sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide) as well as heat are required for the reaction.
