    germinated seeds decreased with higher concentrations of fuel. In addition‚ biodiesel was also synthesized and its heat of combustion was found through the use of calorimetry. The heat capacity for the calorimeter was based on the heat of combustion for ethanol‚ which was then used to determine the heat of combustion for biodiesel. The average heat of combustion for biodiesel was ∆Hcomb= -13090.83 kJ/mole‚ as opposed to the theoretical value of -11496.6 kJ/mole‚ which resulted in a 13.9% difference. Furthermore

    The equation for the reaction between an acid RCOOH and an alcohol RẬᶦ can be the same or different; at equilibrium‚ the concentrations of both reactants and products are constant. In this experiment set up‚ the reaction between ethanoic acid and ethanol to produce ethyl ethanoate and water is a reversible reaction as shown by the following equation: CH₃COOH + CH₃CH₂OH↔CH₃COOCH₂CH₃ +H₂O The Equilibrium Law states that at equilibrium the ratio [CH₃COOCH₂CH₃][H₂O]/[CH₃COOH][CH₃CH₂OH] is constant

    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 and ethanol. They are found in various places‚ which include: in soil‚ on plants‚ in salt water‚ and even along a digestive tract. Yeast‚ depending on the type‚ can reproduce asexually‚ by budding (and are usually attached and stay that way most of their lives)
