Planning Aim; The investigation to find the effect of glucose concentration on fermentation of yeast. In this experiment I am going to investigate the fermentation of different Glucose concentration by yeast. To do this I am going to change the glucose concentration and see how different glucose concentration ferment with yeast. I am going to measure how long it will take the fermentation of yeast to take place, I am going to do this by adding phenolphthalein which is pink when it is alkali to the solution and I am going to measure the time it takes for the phenolphthalein to become colourless which is acidic. How does it effect the rate and which type of glucose concentration works best? Glucose -> Ethanol + Carbon Dioxide + Energy (C6H12O6 => 2 C2H5OH +2 CO2 + 2 ATP +heat) Glucose ethanol + carbon dioxide C6H12O6 (aq) 2C?H5OH (aq) + 2CO? (g) The factor I have chosen is to...
