I NEED HELP WITH THIS QUESTION- Sketch the mechanism of the reaction and show what part of the triglyceride becomes the glycerol molecule and what becomes sodium palmitate.

Green Chemistry Institute American Chemical Society Reaction: Saponification CH₂-0-0 -(CH₂)14-CH3 OFU O CH- -0--(CH₂)14-CH3 + 3NaOH — CH—OH + 3 NaO−C−(CH) –CH CH2-O–C—(CH2)–CHs Triglyceride Step 2: Leaving group leaves. General Reaction Mechanism for Saponification: Step 1: Nucleophilic attack by the hydroxide R-C R 'H R₁ — I CH₂-OH e CH₂-OH Glycerol Step 3: Deprotonation due to the basic environment. •oº• 0-R # Atom Economy Page 3 Sodium palmitate (a soap) -R' HO-R
