What Is A Description Of The Chemical Processes Involved In The Use Of Yeast For Bread

What are the types of chemical reactions involved in baking?

neutralization with an acid and baking soda, the CO2 gas is used in making baked products rise
citric acid+ NaHCO3---> CO2 gas + water + sodium citrate
In baking powder, the citric acid is the dry ingredient that reacts with the baking soda[which is the other ingredient present]

the browning reaction that causes the tops of a cake or bread to brown is a composition reaction between proteins and sugars. Mailard reaction

Yeast breaks down glucose to release CO2 gas, decomposition

denaturing of egg white when it cooks is a chemical reaction
kneading produces gluten from other proteins in the flour. synthesis.

If you burn something, then it is combustion

What is the chemical equation for the fermentation process in yeast?

in the fermentati0n process glucose [C6H12O6]c of food is converted into ethanol [ethyl alchol, C2H5OH] and Co2 by yeast cell .In this process yeast cell produce in vertase and zymase enzyme which convert glucose into alcohol .i.e. c6H12O6========> C2H5OH+Co2+energy

How are chemical reactions involved in baking bread?

In the case of yeast bread, the yeast converts sugar into alcohol and carbon dioxide gas. The carbon dioxide causes the bread to rise.

What is the chemical equation for the fermentation process in yeast?

C6H12O6 ==> 2C2H5OH + 2CO2

Glucose ---> Ethanol + Carbon dioxide

The substance, carbon dioxide is used as raising agent in baking bread. I think that is the answer. because ethanol which is alcohol is used to make wine.

Is bread dough rising when yeast is added a physical or chemical change?

To what? The yeast or bread?
It is a chemical reaction
the yeast cells preform aerobic respiration producing CO2
so its a chemical change

What process is used to make bread rise?

B!!!
During the fermentation process of bread, sugar is converted into alcohol and carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide will form bubbles, which will be trapped by the gluten of the wheat causing the bread to rise. Because the bread fermentation takes a short period only small amounts of alcohol are formed, most of which will be evaporated during the bread baking process. Therefore, you want get drunk by eating bread!

What causes the bread dough to rise?

fermentation. Carbon dioxide is released. Fermentation is normally a 2 step process that recycles NADH to NAD for glycolysis to resume. It's an anaerobic reaction. The final product of yeast fermentation is CO2 and ethanol.

As for why you don't get drunk...i surmise 2 possibilities: the ethanol evaporates in the warm environment OR ethanol is metabolized by yeast cells and converted to acetyl CoA for the krebs cycle (aerobic reaction - so i don't know if this is likely)/ Smooth ER could also uptake the alcohol like liver cells do and detoxify it.
