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!

How many total atoms are in three molecules of table sugar?
135. The empirical formula for sucrose (table sugar) is C12H22O11, for 45 atoms per sucrose molecule.
How do you make ethanol gas?
Ethanol can be produced by:Anaerobic fermentation of natural sugar (beets, cane, starch) done by yeastPetrochemically by acid catalized reaction of ethene with water
Is the sides of the DNA molecule are made up of repeating nitrogen bases and sugars?
No. The sides of the DNA molecule is made of alternating deoxyribose sugar molecules and phosphate groups.
How does Brazil produce ethanol?
Sugar Cane.
What is a large covalently-bonded molecule that has a repeated structural unit?
This is a comlex carbohydrate made from many different sugar molecules joined together
What happens when sugar dissolve in water?
Sugar becomes what is know as aqueous( dissolved in solution with the water) this is the process of water molecules breaking and surrounding ions in he sugar so for each sugar molecule several water molecules will be bonded to it thus why if you put enough sugar into water it cant dissolve all of it as there are not enough water molecules to surround the sugar.
Why is sugar soluble in ethyl alcohol?
The molecule of ethanol has a small polarity.
the sides of the dna molecule are made up of sugar molecules and what?
Sugar molecules and phosphate groups
What sugar molecules is involved in the structure of DNA?
The sugar molecule is deoxyribose.
Can you see a single molecule of sugar?
No molecules are visible to naked eye.Even to microscope,single molecule is not visible.
What happens to the paricles of sugar when a sugarcube is dissolved in water?
the sugar particles turn into ions which attach to the polar molecules of water Each sugar molecule does not become an ion. Each sugar molecule is charge neutral and thus has no charge. When sugar is dissolved in water, the water pulls the sugar molecules apart from each other and the individual sugar molecules no longer touch each other. Each sugar molecule is surrounded by water. The forces between molecules are responsible for this. The polar shape of water molecules is what governs the separation.
How many molecules of oxygen produced along with one molecules of sugar?
With the production of one molecule of sugar six molecules of oxygen are produced during photosynthesis.
What makes up the sides of a DNA molecule?
The sides (uprights) of the DNA molecule are composed of alternating deoxyribose sugar molecules and phosphate molecules.
How can molecules of sugar be dissolved by molecules of water?
When crystallized sugar is put into water, the H2O molecules separate the sugar molecules from each other. This happens because both H2O and sugar molecules are polar. The polarity causes the much smaller H2O molecules to squeeze between the sugar molecules and break the weak van der Waals forces that exists between them. The H2O molecule bonds to the sugar molecule with a stronger bond than the earlier van der Waals force (because of the polarity of the molecules).
What is a single sugar molecules called?
Monosaacharides are one sugar molecules Disaacharides are two sugars Polysaacharides are 3+ sugar molecules. It is important to know the difference if you are taking biochemistry!
What makes of the sides of the ladder of a DNA molecule?
The sides of the DNA ladder are alternating deoxyribose (sugar) molecules and phosphate molecules. The DNA bases attach to the sugar molecules.
How many molecules of carbon dioxide are to produce one 6-carbon sugar molecule?
six molecules
