Fermentation Lab: Conclusion & Evaluation of the Effect of Type of Carbohydrate on Amount of CO2 Produced IB Biology/Topic: 3.7 05 February 2013 Question: Which type of carbohydrate‚ glucose‚ sucrose‚ or starch‚ will produce the greatest amount of fermentation over the class period? Why? Hypothesis: If the carbohydrate starch is added to the set up of yeast‚ then it will create the greatest amount of fermentation because starch is a polysaccharides

Bleach Oxidation of 9-Hydroxyfluorene The purpose of this experiment was to oxidize an alcohol (9-hydroxyfluorene) to a ketone (9-fluorenone) using aqueous sodium hypochlorite (bleach) as the oxidizing agent‚ while introducing techniques used in microscale experiments. Reaction: Results 1. Recrystallized Product Yield Product yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield) x 100% 3mL 9-hydroxyfluorene x (1mL/1000mL) x (0.09 mol/L) = 2.7 x 10-4 moles 0.05g 9-fluorenone / (180.20g/mol) = 2.77 x 10-4

In bio lab‚ my lab partners and I did a lab experiment involving yeast fermentation. Fermentation is an anaerobic process to regenerate NAD+ to keep glycolysis active. Yeast preforms ethanol fermentation which create ethanol and NAD+. The class used six different types of sugars to determine which fuels fermentation by measuring the amount the carbon dioxide bubbles produced by the yeast. Yeast are single-cell fungi that cannot make their own food. They take the sugars in the surrounding environment

Yeats Fermentation Lab Investigative Question: How does the sugar concentration affect the fermentation of yeast? Hypothesis: The percentage of sugar in a solution is directly proportional to the amount of produced CO2‚ as a result of Yeast fermentation. Data table: Amount of CO2 measured in cm. (Bubble length) | Trial | Percentage of sugar in solution | | | 0% | 5% | 10% | 15% | 20% | | 1 | 0 | 0.5 | 0.5 | 0.3 | 3.1 | | 2 | 0 | 0.3 | 1.3 | 0.4 | 5 | | 3 | 0 | 0.2 |

Premium Yeast Carbon dioxide Scientific method
strove to determine how effective different sugars were in fermentation by measuring their CO2 emissions. An increased CO2 production implies the substrate is undergoing glycolysis more often‚ resulting in increased ATP synthesis. For a more accurate interpretation of the results‚ glucose acted as a positive control‚ displaying the most efficiency in fermentation as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2‚ while ethanol‚ which is a byproduct of fermentation‚ acted as a negative control‚ producing no CO2. These

Of Sugar on Yeast Fermentation Lab Purpose: To measure and analyze the effects of various types and masses of sugar in an ethanol fermentation reaction with yeast. Introduction: Ethanol fermentation is a system in which hydrogen ions from NADH + H + are broken down in order to release the trapped energy and regenerate NAD+. In the absence of a mitochondria or oxygen ethanol is formed‚ which is typically found in bacteria and some yeast. Yeast fermentation has been used commercially

of this lab is to determine whether there is an optimal level of sugar added to well water for the added yeast to produce the largest volume of carbon dioxide. Background Information What is yeast? Yeast‚ whose scientific name is Saccharomyces Cerevisiae‚ are single-celled organisms that are a part of the fungi group. Yeast is very capable of alcoholic fermentation‚ where yeast cells primarily break down the sugars glucose‚ fructose‚ and sucrose. The two end products of this fermentation are carbon
