If the scale is tared when the vial is alone, and then tared again before it is weighed with the ethanol, the conditions will be different. This means the scale will have recorded a different temperature and air flow than the original weighing. The recorded weight will not be accurate. These conditions need to stay constant with the scale in order to get an accurate reading, and for the data above, the scale did not read accurately. These inaccurate readings prevented the rest of the calculations to be done.The technique is important because it can be used to break down sugars in the body without oxygen. This is useful because our bodies can still break down sugar for energy without the presence of oxygen (Morton, 1980). A practical application of this technique is in the kitchen.Ethanol fermentation allows bread and dough to rise. When the yeast breaks down the sugar
