In the formation of soap there is a reaction of triglycerides with KOH. One of the components in triglycerides is oleo-palmitostearin (C55H104O6).
How is the reaction between C55H104O6+KOH?

The Reaktion is given above.

These three acid are connected as ester to glycerine HOCH2CH(OH)CH2OH.
The soap reaction give the sodium or potassium salts.
