    This document describes an experiment to demonstrate fermentation. It involves measuring the height of a yeast-glucose-water solution over time. Yeast is added to solutions with and without glucose. After 20 minutes, the height is measured to show that the solution containing glucose increases in height, indicating that fermentation has produced gas and increased the volume. The document provides precautions for the experiment such as controlling the temperature of glucose and ensuring the solution is not disturbed during the demonstration.

    measure the height of solution after 20 mins using a metre ruler
    Untitled.notebook January 30, 2023

    with the presence of glucose, the height of the mixture increases after 20 mins, 
    which shows fermentation/anaerobic respiration occurs/increases

    8. Precautions / Suggestion to improve the experiment

    ­ make sure glucose is not too hot
    ­ close the aluminium foil tightly immediately after the yeast is added
    ­ make the reading of the ruler is taken with the position of eye perpendicular to the ruler
    ­ make sure the solution is not shaken or stirred
    ­ add the yeast slowly
