Assertion is true while reason is false.

The reaction mentioned in question is called hydrogenation, rather than saponification.

The hydrogen reacts and binds to saturate, unsaturated multiple bonds present, thus converting in them solidified form from liquid state.

The reaction takes place in presence of catalyst nickel and the temperature of reaction to occur is 60° C.

Catalyst functions to speed up the reaction.
