Is coconut oil soluble in dilute NaOH?

Coconut oil is insoluble in dilute NaOH.

Coconut oil is a triglyceride, which means it is composed of three fatty acids attached to a glycerol molecule. Fatty acids are long chains of carbon atoms with hydrogen atoms attached. The carbon-carbon bonds in fatty acids are nonpolar, meaning they do not have a net electrical charge. Hydrogen atoms have a slight positive charge, and oxygen atoms have a slight negative charge. The oxygen atoms in the glycerol molecule of coconut oil are polar, meaning they have a net electrical charge. The polar oxygen atoms in coconut oil can interact with the polar water molecules in dilute NaOH, but the nonpolar carbon-carbon bonds in coconut oil cannot. This causes coconut oil to be insoluble in dilute NaOH.
