Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the main byproduct of ethanol fermentation?
  • Step 1: Understand what ethanol fermentation is. It is a process where yeast converts sugars into ethanol (alcohol) and other products.
  • Step 2: Identify the main products of this process. The two main products are ethanol and carbon dioxide.
  • Step 3: Focus on the byproducts. A byproduct is something that is produced during a process but is not the main product.
  • Step 4: Recognize that while ethanol is the main product, carbon dioxide is the main byproduct that is released during fermentation.
