The chemical formula for anaerobic fermentation to produce ethanol from sugar is:
C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2
The process creates 2 moles of carbon dioxide for each mole of sugar used.
Yes, fermentation produces carbon dioxide as a byproduct.
Fermentation produces alcohol and carbon dioxide. Burning the alcohol produces more carbon dioxide.
Carbon dioxide is a product of cellular respiration but not fermentation. Fermentation produces alcohol or lactic acid as end products.
fermentation
Cellular respiration produces water but fermentation does not.Respiration: glucose + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water Fermentation: glucose --> alcohol + carbon dioxide
The process that produces ethanol is alcoholic fermentation. The process that produces lactic acid is lactic acid fermentation.
Carbon Dioxide and Alcohol (anaerobic respiration)
Cellular respiration produces water but fermentation does not.Respiration: glucose + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water Fermentation: glucose --> alcohol + carbon dioxide
carbon dioxide
Yeast is a fungus. It forms carbon dioxide and alcohol during fermentation.
Both lactic fermentation and alcoholic fermentation produce energy in the form of ATP for cells. Lactic fermentation results in the production of lactic acid, while alcoholic fermentation produces ethanol and carbon dioxide as byproducts.
