This passage describes a chemical reaction. Read the passage. Then, answer the question below.
Why are there often holes in slices of bread? The holes are created by bubbles of carbon dioxide gas (
CO2
) that form in the bread dough before and during baking. These bubbles form when single-celled organisms called yeast break down glucose (
C6H12O6
), a sugar in flour. In addition to carbon dioxide gas, a substance called ethanol (
C2H6O
) forms during this process.
In the chemical reaction described in the passage, which of the following are products?
