✔️✔️✌️✌️✌️✌️ Fermentation is represented by the equation✌️✌️✔️✔️✔️
The overall chemical formula for alcoholic fermentation is: C6H12O6 → 2 C2H5OH + 2 CO. Sucrose is a dimer of glucose and fructose molecules. In the first step of alcoholic fermentation, the enzyme invertase cleaves the glycosidic linkage between the glucose and fructose molecules.
