Please how to write the balanced equation fort this problem and What fraction of the carbon in the glucose ends up in CO2??
Analysis of yeast shows that yeast contains, by weight, 50% C, 6.94% H, 9.72% N, 33.33% O. Model yeast as a single chemical compound of molecular formula: C6HxOyNz. Determine values for x, y and z. The starch in corn residues is depolymerized by alpha-amylase and glucoamylase enzymes. The resulting glucose, along with NH3, is consumed by growing and replicating yeast. CO2 and H20 are byproducts of yeast growth. In one experiment, 4 g of CO2 was produced per gram of yeast. Use this additional information, along with formal element balances to, write a balanced chemical reaction with glucose, oxygen, and ammonia as reactants, and yeast, CO2, and water as products.
