    Fermentation is represented by equation

    A)  \[{{\text{C}}_{\text{6}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{12}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{6}}}\text{+}\,\text{6}{{\text{0}}_{\text{2}}}\to \text{6C}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\text{+}\,\text{6}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{+}\,\text{673}\,\text{kcal}\]

    B) \[{{\text{C}}_{\text{6}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{12}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{6}}}\xrightarrow{{}}\text{2}{{\text{C}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{5}}}\text{OH+}\,\text{2C}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\text{+}21\,\text{kcal}\]

    C)  \[6C{{O}_{2}}+12{{H}_{2}}O\to {{\text{C}}_{6}}{{\text{H}}_{12}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}+{{60}_{2}}\,\]

    D)  \[\text{6C}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\text{+6}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{O}\frac{\text{Light}}{\text{Chlorophyll}}{{\text{C}}_{\text{6}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{12}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{6}}}\text{+6}{{\text{0}}_{\text{2}}}\,\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Incomplete breakdown of organic substances without using oxygen as an oxidant takes place during   fermentation.   Fermentation   is represented by the following equation. \[\underset{\text{Glucose}}{\mathop{{{\text{C}}_{\text{6}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{12}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{6}}}}}\,\xrightarrow[\text{Zymase}]{\text{Yeast}}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \text{Ehtyl} \\  \text{alcohol} \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{\text{2}{{\text{C}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{5}}}\text{OH}\,\text{+}\,\text{2C}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}}}\,+\,\underset{\text{energy}}{\mathop{\text{21}\,\text{kcal}}}\,\] Fermentation is mainly of two types  Alcoholic  fermentation-The  above equation shows alcoholic fermentation.  Lactic add fermentation- \[\begin{align}   & \text{2C}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\text{COCOOH}\,\text{+}\,\text{2NAD}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\xrightarrow[{}]{\text{Lactic}\,\text{dehydrogenase}} \\  & \text{C}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\text{CHOHCOOH}\,\text{+}\,\text{2NAD} \\ \end{align}\]\[{{H}_{2}}O\] and \[C{{O}_{2}}\]are not produced in lactic acid fermentation.
