Yeast Converts Glucose into Ethanol and Carbon Dioxide in a Process

Essay

Yeast converts glucose into ethanol and carbon dioxide in a process called fermentation. The unbalanced reaction equation is given below. Write the balanced equation, and find the percent yield for the reaction if 150.0 g of glucose yields 75.0 mL of ethanol (d = 0.789 g/mL).
C₆H₁₂O₆(aq) $\rightarrow$ C₂H₅OH(aq) + CO₂(g)
