What is optimum temperature for the process of fermentation?

Correct answer: C. 25-35 degrees

  • A. 10-15 degrees
  • B. 25-30 degrees
  • C. 25-35 degrees
  • D. 25-40 degrees

Explanation

Option C is correct since 25-35 degrees is the perfect range for the process of fermentation. 32-35 degrees Celsius is the ideal temperature range. Option A is incorrect since 10-15 degrees celsius is too low for the process of fermentation. Option B is incorrect since 25-30 degrees celsius is not the ideal range. Since the optimum temperature for fermentation is between 32-35 degrees celsius. Option D is incorrect since 25-40 degrees celsius is too high for the process of fermentation. Every degree above this range (32-35) depresses fermentation.

About Alcohols

Alcohols contain a hydroxyl group attached to a saturated carbon atom and are classified as primary, secondary or tertiary. Their nomenclature, hydrogen bonding, acidity, oxidation, dehydration, reaction with sodium and conversion to haloalkanes are covered, along with the distinction between alcohols and phenols, where the hydroxyl group is attached directly to an aromatic ring.
