Add about 10 gramsof bayberry tallow and boil, keeping the volume constant byadding water as needed. AVhen saponification is complete1add concentrated HC1 slowly until no further precipitate isproduced. Cool the solution and the precipitate of free fattyacid will rise to the surface and form a cake. In this in-stance the fatty acid is principally palmitic acid. Remove thecake, break it into small pieces, wash it with water by decanta- Fig. Palmitic Acid. tion and transfer to a small beaker by means of 95 per centalcohol.
