Hey mate!
Here is your answer
WHAT IS SAPONIFICATION? Saponification is a process that involves conversion of fat or oil into soap and alcohol by the action of heat in the presence of aqueous alkali. Soaps are salts of fatty acids whereas fatty acids are saturated monocarboxylic acids that have long carbon chains e.g. CH₃(CH₂)₁₄COOH.
