It is converted into acetaldehyde(what causes the hang over&the addiction to alcohol) then to acetic acid(harmless vinegar) then to acetyl-coA then to carbon dioxide & water(through TCA cycle) .....energy(ATP) is emitted in the process then usually this "energy" is used to produce glucose...the process is faster in men than women and its exhausting to the liver ...so cut back on the booze ,even better not to drink at all.

What is the chemical reaction between yeast and sugar in the presence of water?
It's a two-step process: 1) Sugar (sucrose) is broken down into two molecules of glucose. C12H22O11 + H2O + invertase----> 2C6H12O6 2) The two glucose molecules are broken down into ethanol and carbon dioxide. 2C6H12O6 + Zymase ----> 4C2H5OH + 4CO2 You can find out more by going to the Ethanol fermentation article on Wikipedia.
