>>Soaps are sodium or potassium salts of long chain fatty acids.

>>When triglycerides in fat/oil react with aqueous NaOH or KOH, they are converted into soap and glycerol. This is called alkaline hydrolysis of esters.

>>Since this reaction leads to the formation of soap, it is called the Saponification process.
