What is the reaction of an alkene and water in the presence of an acid catalyst to produce an alcohol called?
hydration
A dehydration reaction occurring between two primary alcohol molecules will produce what?
aldehyde
Is dehydration the chemical reaction to make a polymer?
Yes, monomers are connected by a reaction in which two molecules are covalently bonded to each other through loss of a water molecule; this is known as condensation reaction, specifically a dehydration reaction. There are other mechanisms and reactions to make polymers though. Dehydration is just one of them but not the only one. A poly-alcohol reacting with a poly-acid with removal of water (dehydration) will produce a polyester for example.
Yeasts can produce ATP by either fermentation or chemiosmosis thus they are?
Fermentation the process of producing ATPs without the presence of oxygen.2 types of fermentation: Alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation.Alcohol fermentation: Some types of yeast, for instance, will produce lots of ATP and carbon dioxide if they have plenty of oxygen, but if they lack oxygen, then they produce alcohol instead of lactic acid.
Does beer contain ethanol alcohol?
Beer does contain ethyl alcohol (ethanol). Beer is made from water, barley, hops, and yeast. The water and barley are mashed to produce sugars that the yeast metabolizes to produce ethanol. Beer yeast can produce alcohol levels from 2.5-18% alcohol by volume.

aldehyde
Will a oxygen gas mixed with hydrogen gas produce substance?
If there is a source of activation energy, or in the presence of an active catalyst, these elements will react to produce water.
What is the importance of Molisch's test performed on carbohydrates?
Molisch's Test is a chemical test for the presence of carbohydrates, based on the dehydration of the carbohydrate by sulfuric acid to produce an aldehyde. Its importance is that it tests the presence of carbohydrates based on their dehydration,

Does Hydrolysis or dehydration produce water as a byproduct?
Hydrolysis uses water in the reaction and dehydration removes it. The answer is dehydration.
Problems with oxygen getting into fermentation?
Fermentation is an anaerobic response for yeast. Yeast will respire aerobically in the presence of oxygen and will not produce alcohol.
Why are catalysts usually expensive?
Because some of the catalyst is rare such as platinum that is use as catalyst to produce ammonia.
Can anything reduce the amount of saliva you produce?
Dehydration.
Reaction between alcohol and fehling's solution?
a red precipitate is formed which indicates the presence of aldehyde.
The bonding of unit molecules to produce a polysaccharide is called?
dehydration
What do plants produce in the presence of sunlight?
It will produce oxygen.
