Calculate the percent yield using data below
Reaction involved
TAG + 3MOH ------> 3(M salt of fatty acid) + Glycerol
Here, M is Sodium (Na) or Potassium (K)
Moles of coconut oil taken = 1.993 g/(869.4 g/mol)
= 0.002292 moles
Theoretical moles of soap to be formed = 3*0.002292 = 0.006876 moles
Theoretical mass of sodium soap to be formed from coconut oil = 0.006876*299.1 = 2.057 g
Mass of soap formed = 0.817 g
% yield = (0.817/2.057) x 100 = 39.72 %
In case potassium soap is formed:
Theoretical mass of potassium soap from coconut oil = 0.006876*315.2 = 2.167 g
% yield = (0.817/2.167)*100 = 37.70 %

Lab 12: Saponification – Making Soap Objective: To make soap using the process call saponification, an organic form of the neutralization reaction that an acid reacts with a base to form a salt. Introduction: A soap is the sodium or potassium salt of a long chained carbohydrate called a fatty acid. A fatty acid usually contains between 12 – 18 carbon atoms. Fatty acids are esters of either animal or vegetable fats. They are called triglycerides if they are solids at room...
what would be my percent yield if i retrieved 3.1020 grams of soap? thank you, please show all work. SAPONIFICATION (HYDROLYSIS OF A FAD Fats and edible oils consitute a special class of esters called riglycerides in which alcohol part of the molecule, the trihydroxy compound glycerol, forms with three molecules of various long-chain carboxylic acids (called fatty acids). Ty reactions of simple esters can also be carried out on fats and oils,i acid-or-base-catalyzed hydrolysis. three ester linkages carboxylic acids...
