Alkenes & Alcohols: Fermentation 🍺 GCSE Chemistry Learning & Revision

REVISE GCSE Chemistry - A podcast by Seneca Learning

In this episode, we discuss fermentation.

Fermentation, a common method for making ethanol, a key ingredient in alcoholic beverages, is detailed.

The process involves adding yeast to a sugary liquid. This results in a reaction that yields ethanol in a water-based solution and carbon dioxide.

Optimal conditions for this process include a temperature of 37°C, a slightly acidic environment, and the absence of oxygen.

In essence, the episode outlines the fundamental process and necessary conditions for producing ethanol through fermentation.
