All , Because the reaction between oil and alkali takes place only at interface and thus rate of the reaction is very slow . But when oil is dissolved in ethanol the saponification progresses well.

Is coconut oil soluble in ethyl alcohol?
Yes, coconut oil is soluble in ethyl alcohol to some extent, as both are nonpolar substances. However, the solubility may be limited depending on the concentration of coconut oil and alcohol in the mixture.
Why is castor oil soluble in alcohol unlike other fixed oils?
Castor oil is soluble in alcohol due to its unique chemical composition that includes a high concentration of ricinoleic acid, which has a hydroxyl group that allows it to form hydrogen bonds with alcohol molecules. Other fixed oils do not contain this hydroxyl group, making them less soluble in alcohol.
Are kerosene and oil soluble?
No. Kerosene is an organic compound. and water is a non-organic compound. (kerosene : non-polar Water : polar). As water is a polar solvent kerosene is not soluble in it. but kerosene is soluble in ethyl alcohol which is a non-polar solvent.
Are permanent markers soluble in ethanol?
No, permanent markers are not soluble in ethanol. Permanent markers use a type of ink that is oil-based or alcohol-based, and ethanol is not a strong enough solvent to dissolve it.
Is glucose soluble in .95 of ethyl alcohol?
Glucose is soluble in ethanol.
Is coconut oil soluble in ethyl alcohol?

Is coffee soluble in alcohol?
Order a B-52 coffee sometime. Yes, they are soluble.
Is cooking oil soluble in isoprophyl alcohol?
Isopropanol is completely miscible with water as well as partially miscible with vegetable oil.
Is alcohol soluble in hexane?
methyl alcohol is not soluble in hexane
Name a liquid that DNA is not soluble in?
DNA is not soluble in alcohol.
Which liquid or liquids would be most suitible for the extraction of alprazolam Is it soluble in Lemon Juice or Alcohol or Sterilized Vegetable Oil or anything else possibly?
Alprazolam is soluble in ethanol.
Lipids are soluble in?
Lipids are soluble in nonpolar solvents like alcohol, ether, and chloroform due to their hydrophobic nature. They are not soluble in polar solvents like water.
Is iodine soluble in oil?
No, iodine is not soluble in oil. Iodine is a water-soluble compound and will not mix with nonpolar substances like oil.
Is clindamycin more soluble is water or alcohol?
Clindamycin HCl is very water soluble, while only slightly soluble in alcohol.
Can denatured alcohol be used with water-soluble oil paints instead of mineral spirits?
Denatured alcohol or methylated spirits is ethanol that has additives to make it poisonous, extremely bad tasting, foul smelling or nauseating, to discourage recreational consumption. Denatured alcohol will remove latex and shellac based paint but will do nothing to oil based paint.
