    itself contains. In this experiment, using the constructed apparatus, an Erlenmeyer flask with an air sample will be placed in four different water baths, which vary in temperature. Following this, a mathematical relationship between pressure and absolute temperature of a gas can be determined. This data will be used to determine the type of mathematical relationship between pressure…

    Introduction: Based on preliminary research, the hypothesis of the present study was that at temperatures higher or lower than 40 degrees Celsius fermentation is inhibited. Alcoholic fermentation is used in food production such as brewing, winemaking, and baking (Campbell). Thus optimizing fermentation and understanding the effect of various environmental factors can have important economic and social benefits. The production of CO2 is being assessed to show the rate of fermentation at certain…
