1. A fat sample with combination free fatty acids required 8mL and 5mL of standard hydrochloric acid for blank and sample titration, respectively. The normality of the standard hydrochloric acid is 0.93N and the weight of the sample is 3 grams. Calculate the saponification value.

2. A 500mg oil sample is taken from a conical flask and is dissolved in 50mL distilled alcohol. An indicator is added and is then titrated against 0.112N KOH until a slight pink color appears. It took 17.6mL of the titrant to reach the endpoint. What is the sample’s Acid Value?
