When glucose is added to yeast in solution, the enzymes inside it turn the mixture into ethanol and carbon dioxide, so, for your question, carbon dioxide. It also respires normally (aerobically) and then too produces carbon dioxide.

Yeasts give off a gas called carbon dioxide. This gas creates bubbles that get trapped in bread when baking, and causes it to rise.

Is yeast produce a gas when sugar is Available?

No, combining yeast with sugar will not produce gas. Yeast must be dissolved in water with starch or sugar in order to begin fermentation producing CO2 gas.


How much gas can yeast produce?

Yeast can produce more that 30 o/o or more


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.


What does dry yeast need to produce gas?

Warm liquid and sugar.


Why does yeast produce gas?

Yeast is a microorganism and when we mix yeast in some food, it starts growing. When yeast grows, it uses sugars for metabolism and produce carbon dioxide as the other living organisms do. This gas produces bubbling inthe food.


Do yeast cells make their own food?

No. Yeast cells need some type of sugar to digest and produce gas.


What kind of gas does yeast give off?

Carbon dioxide


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.


Can yeast be altered so it cannot produce a gas when sugar is available?

Yeast can be killed with heat, that is why you use warm water to start it, not hot.


Can yeast produce gas?

Yes, it respires and releases carbon dioxide; this causes bread to rise.


Do you expect yeast to produce a gas when sugar is available?

Yes, in the presence of sugar, yeast ferments releasing carbon dioxide (which makes the bubbles in bread dough).


Why does yeast rise in bread making?

Yeast reacts with sugar to produce Carbon Dioxide gas. This makes the dough rise (and produces the 'holes' you see when you slice into a loaf).
