The balanced equation for the fermentation of ethanol to acetic acid and carbon dioxide is:
C2H5OH → CH3COOH + CO2
From the equation, we can see that one mole of ethanol reacts to produce one mole of acetic acid.
Therefore, if 0.5 moles of ethanol undergo fermentation, it will produce 0.5 moles of acetic acid.
