    • 3 Pages

    There are more than one forms of fermentation; yeast fermentation is probably the most common method. This process is used in many everyday products today. Yeast was first discovered in 1676‚ but was used before. It has also led to numerous scientific advances. Yeast expands‚ especially well with a good amount of sugar‚ the more of the amount the greater it expands. Yeast is a single-celled organism‚ a fungus to be more specific. They consume carbohydrates‚ mainly sugars‚ and produce carbon dioxide

    investigate the effect of different amounts of a substrate on the respiration rate of yeast and to compare this to the effect of different amounts of glucose on the rate of yeast respiration. The substrate which I chose to further investigate was fructose. Fructose is a fruit sugar which is one of the three‚ along with glucose and galactose‚ dietary monosaccharides that are directly absorbed into the bloodstream during digestion.

    Ms. Lunsford Honors Chemistry 12/6/2011 Abstract Yeast is widely used for making bread‚ beer‚ and wine. People all over the world drink and eat those products. This projects looks at which fruit juice with a higher percentage of sugar will produce more fermentation. The original purpose of this experiment was to determine the amount of fermentation of 3 different fruit juices after adding a certain amount of yeast. By measuring the type of fruit juice (independent variable) the amount

    Fermentation of Carbohydrates: Ethanol from Sucrose Objective: To demonstrate a fermentation process‚ isolate the ethanol produced by fractional distillation‚ determine the composition of the ethanol solution recovered‚ and make stoichiometric and yield calculations. Procedures: Fermentation Weigh out 20.0 g of sucrose and place it into a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask. Add 100 mL of water and gently shake until all the sucrose has dissolved. To this solution add 0.60 g of dipotassium hydrogen phosphate

    Making Bread with Yeast By Rebecca Coles Introduction Bread is such a common food‚ who would expect it to be made in such a fascinating and clever way? A simple loaf contains just four main ingredients; flour (the main ingredient)‚ warm water (the yeast prefer the water warm)‚ salt and of course the yeast‚ tiny microscopic fungi that help the bread rise. Although fascinating the process is surprisingly simple; first‚ the flour‚ sugar and water is mixed together with yeast to make the bread

    Carbohydrate Loading There are many threats to an athlete during physical endurance competition whether it is a marathon or the decathlon. The most common forms of these threats include hypoglycaemia‚ fatigue‚ and loss of morale (which is usually caused by hypoglycaemia and fatigue). There is one connection that can be made between these threats and that is that all are caused one way or another through the lack of carbohydrates (Peterson). The most common way to combat these threats

    Abstract Carbohydrates are the most abundant organic compounds in the plant world. They act as storehouses of chemical energy (glucose‚ starch‚ glycogen); are components of supportive structures in plants (cellulose)‚crustacean shells (chitin)‚ and connective tissues in animals (glucosaminoglycans); and are essential components of nucleic acids (D-ribose and 2-deoxy-D-ribose). Monosaccharides‚ oligosaccharides‚ and polysaccharides are theclassifications of carbohydrates. This experiment involves
