The brewing industry uses yeast microorganisms to convert the glucose (C6H12O6). to ethanol (C2H5OH) for wine and beer. The baking industry uses the carbon dioxide produced to make bread rise: C6H12O6 ----yeast----> 2 C2H5OH + 2CO2
A.) How many grams of ethanol can be produced from 100 grams of glucose?
B.) What volume (in milliliters) of CO2 is produced? (assume 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L at the conditions used)
