Fermentation+of+glucose

=The fermentation of glucose sugars=

C6H12O6 (aq) > 2C2H5OH (aq) + 2CO2 (g)
The fermentation of glucose sugars is an exothermic reaction

The Ingredients
The ingredients in this reaction contain ethanol alcohol, a drinking alcohol (2c2H5OH). Ethanol is also a psychoactive drug. Ethanol is made from corn. It can also be used as a feul. Another ingredient in this process is two moles of carbon dioxide ( 2CO2). We breathe out carbon dioxide after we inhale oxygen. The final ingredient in this reaction is the glucose (C6H12O6). Glucose is otherwise known as sugar, and it is in almost everything that we eat. The catalyst in this reaction is yeast bacteria. If oxygen is present, some species of yeast (e.g., // [|Kluyveromyces lactis] // or // [|Kluyveromyces lipolytica] // ) will oxidize [|pyruvate] completely to carbon dioxide and water. This process is called cellular respiration. But this species of yeast will only produce ethanol in an anaerobic environment.



The importance of the fermentation of glucose
The fermentation of glucose is important in many ways. One of the many ways that it is used is to create alcoholic drinks. The human body requires this process for some important bodily functions. This process is used in cellular respiration and the digestion of your food. This fermentation is also the primary source for the brain. But if too much is used, then it can cause blood disorders. It's sort of weird to think that this process is associated with the process of photosynthesis. This process is also used everyday to make baked goods, wine, beer, liquor, and chocolate. Fermentation is also used in making yogurt. Yogurt is a product of fermented milk.

The importance of chemical reactions
Chemical reactions are a necessary part of everyday living. The action of breathing is a chemical reaction in and of itself. Other chemical reactions include foods, medicines, building materials and fuels. As stated above, ethanol is made from corn and used to make a fuel. Chemical reactions are also taking place inside you. The formation of skin cells is a chemical reaction as well as the formation of a scab. After you eat, your body begins to digest your food. that is also a chemical reaction. Without chemical reactions there would be no life. We would not be able to breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. Plants would not be able to take in carbon dioxide and give us oxygen. Nothing would be able to decompose, so the world would pile up with trash. It seems as though chemical reactions are more important to life than food or water. Oh wait, those are chemical reactions as well.

The elements assosiated with this chemical reaction are:
 * Six Carbons (C)
 * 23 Hydrogens (H)
 * 12 Oxygens (O)
