Abstract

Ninth-grade students learned that yeast needs water, oxygen, and sugar to produce carbon dioxide. Tests have been done during class to see what ratio of sugar to yeast is needed to create the most carbon dioxide. Using that ratio, students used different brands of sugar to see which one will produce the most carbon dioxide. A comparison of sugar brands and carbon dioxide production is made.
