Certain yeast can degrade glucose into ethanol and carbon

Question

Certain yeast can degrade glucose into ethanol and carbon dioxide in a process called alcoholic fermentation according to the equation:

C₆H₁₂O₆(s)® 2 C₂H₅OH(l) + 2 CO₂(g)

• Calculate the enthalpy of reaction using the values in Appendix 2 of the text (assume the glucose is D-glucose).
• Calculate the work done at constant pressure of 1.00 bar and T = 298 K per mole of glucose fermented. Assume the carbon dioxide behaves ideally.
