New Chemistry Game! (1 Viewer)

[Dreamerish*~]

hehehehehe ^^
this one requires you to read everyone else's posts.
I start off with a dot point in the syllabus. Each person contributes ONE sentence only. When all aspects have been covered, we stop. Then I'll copy paste everyone's posts and make a summary. Then someone else bring up a new dot point.
it can be random dot points from anywhere but preferably within the first two modules as most people have only gone that far.

test it out, if it isn't good i'll just delete it and think of a new one suggestions welcome. (this idea was inspired by (^o^))

9.3. Process information from secondary sources to summarise the processes involved in the industrial production of ethanol from sugar cane.

Fermentation requires the enzymes found in yeast.

 

[Casmira]

The fermentation occurs in a sealed flask, with a tube coming out leading into a sealed beaker with a cork lid witha hole in it, in that beaker has lime water. CO2 will change the colour of the lime water

 

[thunderdax]

The best temperature for the reaction is 37 C.

 

[Dreamerish*~]

the concentration of ethanol in solution must be 15% or below.

 

[Emma-Jayde]

A small amount of yeast nutirents such as phosphate salt must be added

C₆H₁₂O_6(aq) --yeast--> 2C₂H₅OH_(aq) + 2CO_2(g) + heat

i.e. the reaction is exothermic, although you need heat to activate it.

 

[MuffinMan]

c6h12o6 (aq) ---yeast---> 2 CH3 - CH2 -OH (aq) + 2 CO2 (g)
damn subscripts how do u type it up on the computer?

the numbers without spaces are subscripts

hehehh dreamerish... what r u doing on bos at this time shouldnt u be at school?

 

[MuffinMan]

damn u beat me
and u could do subscripts as well
how do u do them anyways?

hehehe one step ahead of you
i AM at school we have exams and i have english ext today '-_- i'm in the library not studying it because i'm gonna drop it

oh and subscripts?
type
_{followed by whatever you want to write, and then type [ /sub] (without the space between [ and /, i had to put it there otherwise i would have coded what i just said )}

 

[MuffinMan]

hmms how do u do subscripts
my equation makes no sense because i have no subscripts

edit: my bad i didnt see dreamerish's post

[gosh]

fermentation is promoted in an anaerobic environment (without air)

 

[Dreamerish*~]

the glucose needed for fermentation can be found in molasses - sugar cane waste.

 

[KFunk]

That stuff is the anti-sugar.

 

[Emma-Jayde]

Anti-sugar?

 

[Dreamerish*~]

From Concquering Chemistry, page 30: Molasses, the leftover syrup from sugar milling, is also widely used. Sucrose has a very high solubility in water; this means that the mother liquor left over after sucrose has been crystallised out still has a high sucrose content, so ethanol can be obtained from an otherwise useless waste product of sugar production. Most of the molasses from the North Queensland sugar industry is used to make ethanol.

sorry to interrupt this interesting game.. but please i need help with a question that i posted which can be found under this thread it's for my half yearly which is tmrw...

rate of reaction decreases as concentration of ethanol increases as yeast enzymes are killed by ethanol

now someone can post a new syllabus dot point
