If we assume that the yeast acting in the wort converts sugar to alcohol and carbon dioxide and that for every one sugar molecule two carbon dioxide molecules are created. If we assume that a batch of the wort has a volume of 5 gallons and has a sugar concentration of 410 g/gal. Assuming that the sugar has a molecular mass of 345 g/mol how many molecules of carbon dioxide will be formed?
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
