Chem 131 Experiment : Soap Making (sopanification)

In this experiment we prepare soap from animal fat (lard) or vegetable oil. Animal fats and vegetable oils are esters of carboxylic acids; they have a high molecular weight and contain the alcohol, glycerol. Chemically, these fats and oils are called triglycerides (See chapter 18 of your text). The principal acids in animal fats and vegetable oils can be prepared from the natural triglycerides by alkaline hydrolysis (saponification). You may also choose to add a scent to your soap by adding an essential oil. You can purchase the scent you want to add or isolate it from the natural source using a process of steam distillation (see ‘Natural Product Isolation’ procedure at the end of this lab) % ChemDraw
