Well, the table goes like this for reaction aA+bB <-> cC+dD Suppose that the reaction is going forwards so [A] and [B] is decreasing. So let [F] be an arbitrary concentration of F. Initial: [A] [B] [C] [D] Change: -aX -bX +cX +dX Equilibrium...

Saponification is a base catalysed hydrolysis involving the reaction of nucleophilic hydroxyl ions with the carbonyl carbon of esters. So basically, hydrolysis can be acid or base catalysed. The hydroxyl (OH-) ion, the conjugate base of water, has the same function as water in hydrolysis...
