When yeast respires anaerobically it takes glucose (C6H12O6) and breaks it into ethanol, a small amount of energy, and two molecules of carbon dioxide gas (2CO2).

WHAT''YEAST FOOD'' HELPS THE YEAST CREATE THE MOST GAS?
sugar helps the most
How does yeast turn into gas?
Yeast itself does not turn into gas. When Yeast "eats" sugars to live and to reproduce, it produces waste products like every other living organism. The primary wastes created are ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide. Under the normal conditions in which we live, carbon dioxide, or CO2, is a gas, and that is the gas that is released when yeast metabolizes sugars.
How is ammonia produced?
It is produced by reacting nitrogen gas with hydrogen gas.
What gas is produced when aluminum reacts with sodium hydroxide?
Hydrogen gas is produced.
What gas does yeast and hydrogen peroxide make?
I think its oxygen
What is the waste gas produced by plants as they respire?
The waste gas produced by plants as they respire is oxygen. This is why plants are very important to the earth. Without plants, there probably would not be enough oxygen in the air for all to breathe.
How do yeast eat?
Yeast runs on the same basic food that humans do: Glucose. When yeast metabolizes glucose, it converts the sugar into energy and gives off carbon dioxide as a waste product, which is why it makes bread dough rise. While most yeast organisms require oxygen to do this, some species can metabolize glucose anaerobically and survive even in an environment devoid of oxygen.
What is one relationship between temperature and rate of gas production in yeast?
There is a direct proportional relationship between temperature and rate of gas production in yeast. The higher the temperature the more gas will be produced.
Why does cornmeal work with yeast to produce gas?
Yeast eats the sugar in the syrup. It then poops out co2 and alcohol. The carbon is a byproduct that comes from the yeast after eating sugars.
What gas given out when the fish respire?
Fish do not respire substance in the gas phase, the compound that "is given out" is Carbon Dioxide (in solution).
How does fishes respire in water?
Fish respire in water through gas exchange in their gills.
What gas causes bread dough to rise?
The gas produced by baking bread is called Ozone. It is a poisonous gas, if a lot is inhaled, but the little bit made when bread is baked is not harmful.
How do you measure off gas from yeast?
you can not measure gas of yeast
After some time the yeast and no more gas is produced suggest one possible reason why the yeast dies?
One reason yeast dies is that all the sugars in the dough have been consumed. When this happens, the dough goes "sour."
What is the name of gas in Swiss cheese?
The holes are caused by carbon dioxide which is produced by the bacteria in the cheese as it matures. It's a by-product of respiration. It's the same gas as is produced by yeast in breadmaking - which makes your loaf rise.
How does fermentation that causes dough rise?
Carbon dioxide
Do you expect yeast to produce gas when sugar is available?
Yeast will produce gas if sugar, water, and warmth are available as long as the yeast is still alive. If it is too old or has been too hot and the yeast has died it won't create the gas.
