Which outcome diminishes transesterification yield in biodiesel production?

💡 Explanation

Saponification depletes reactants via base-catalyzed ester hydrolysis, forming soap because the equilibrium constant favors this side reaction under certain conditions. Therefore, yield decreases rather than increasing due to side reactions overriding the primary process.
