Instead of 2 CO2 molecules produced from glucose fermentation, only 5/3 CO2 is released from 1 pentose molecule. 3C5H10O5 ------> 5C2H5OH + 5CO2

How many molecules of ethanol can be obtained from one molecule of sugar?

From one molecule of glucose (sugar) you can obtain two molecules of ethanol. Glucose's chemical composition is C6H12O6 Carbon dioxide (Co2) is lost in the fermentation process so we are left with 2C2H5OH or two ethanol molecules! Hope it helps!

Why ethanol is insoluble in oil?

Ethanol is a polar molecule, while oil is nonpolar. This difference in polarity results in ethanol being insoluble in oil because the interactions between the molecules of each substance are not favorable. Ethanol molecules are more attracted to each other than to the oil molecules, leading to poor solubility.


Fermentation is a complex chemical process of wine making in which glucose is converted into ethanol and carbon dioxide statrting with 500 4g of glucose what is the maximum amount of ethanol in grams?

C6H12O6 (180.16 g/ mol) ---> 2C2H5OH (46.07 g/mol) + 2 CO2 600.4 g glucose @ 92.14 g ethanol / 180.16 g glucose = 307.06 grams of ethanol can be produced 307.06 grams of ethanol @ 0.789g/ml = 389.2 millilitres ========= your answers: 307 grams of ethanol & 0.389 litres of ethanol
