Ethanol is produced in a one-liter batch fermenter by Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast). To begin the batch process, glucose and ammonia are added to the reactor, which has been inoculated by the yeast. The reaction produces glycerol and cell mass, in addition to ethanol, carbon dioxide, and water according to the (unbalanced) reaction below. Note that that the mass ratio of glycerol produced to glucose consumed is 0.2556. Also note that the mass ratio of H. O produced to NH, consumed is 1.058 Glucose + Ammonia → Glycerol + Ethanol + Yeast Cell Mass + Carbon Dioxide + Water a CH (8) + b NH(g)}p CH 0 (1) + (CHO) +ỊCH K04 Nụ (8) + $ 0 g) + t H (1) Balance the equation and fill out the table below. (1 point cach, 6 total) a- 1 b = 115 g of NH, are added to the reactor. At the end of the batch, 640 g of ethanol has been produced. How much glucose was added (assume complete conversion of the limiting reactant). mlar B 16 points) BONUS QUESTION USING CHAPTER 4 CONCEPTS: The standard heat of combustion (AHC) for the yeast is-22.1 kJ/mol. In order to maintain a constant temperature, how much heat must be added or removed from the reactor? Both the sign and magnitude of your answer will be graded J 3 points)
