The Experiment

Making Ethanol from Corn

1. Finely grind corn and add very little water to form a fine paste.
    
2. Weigh the corn paste and add more ground corn, if needed, until the paste weighs exactly 200 gm.
    
3. Repeat Steps 3 to 10 as stated above.
    
   • Take care to label the three sets of beakers as Ethanol from Corn - Set #1, Set #2, Set #3
