Fermentation is the process of making alcohol (ethanol) by mixing sugar and yeast in a barell:
sugar + yeast ----> ethanol + carbon dioxide
Hydration is another process of making alcohol (ethanol) by heating water and ethene at a temperature of around 300 degrees celcius under high pressure:
ethene + steam -----> ethanol
One big difference between fermentation and hydration is that fermentation pproduces the bi-product cabon dioxide whereas hydration doesn't. Another difference coulkd be that the reaction of hydration happens a lot faster than that of fermentation.

What is the main difference between respiration and fermentation?
respiration uses oxygen
What is the difference between fermentation and assimilation?
fermentation is f e r m e .... but assimilation is a s s i m i .......... do you understand?
How are lactic acid fermentation and alchoholic fermentation similar?
Alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation are similar because glucose is oxidized to two molecules of pyruvic acid. The difference between them is that alcohol fermentation yield two molecules of ATP also.
What is one true distinction between fermentation and cellular respiration?
cellular respiration uses oxygen but fermentation does not use oxygen
What is the difference between fermentation and chemical reaction?
Fermentation is a specific kind of chemical reaction. It is an organo-, or even biochemical reaction and in nature normally performed by microorganisms or enzymes, to be more specific.
How is ethanol manufactured?
Hydration of ethene or fermentation.
Is it true that the main difference between respiration and fermentation is that fermentation does not use water?
no
What is the difference between respiration to fermentation?
Respiration uses oxygen, fermentation doesn't.
What is the difference between Lactic acid fermentation and Aerobic equation?
The main difference between lactic acid fermentation and aerobic equation is the presence of oxygen. Lactic acid fermentation does not require oxygen, while in aerobic equation, oxygen is present.
What is the difference between hydration and dehydration?
Hydration is having water, dehydration is having less water than the minum something needs to work.
What is the difference between fermented and brewed or can they be synonyms?
Brewing is a kind of fermentation.
What is the main difference between respiration and fermentation?
respiration uses oxygen
What is the difference between distillation and fermentation?
what is the difference between fermentation and distillation? Distillation- the separation of alcohol from a fermented liquid by heating to vaportize the alcohol, then condensing the vapors. Fermentation- The action of yeast upon sugar in a solution, which breaks down the sugar into carbon dioxide and alcohol
What is the difference between fermentation and assimilation?
fermentation is f e r m e .... but assimilation is a s s i m i .......... do you understand?
What is the difference between solid state and submerged fermentation?
Solid-state (substrate) fermentation (SSF) has been defined as the fermentation process occurring in the absence or near-absence of free water. Submerged is liquid state Fermentation
How are lactic acid fermentation and alchoholic fermentation similar?
Alcohol fermentation and lactic acid fermentation are similar because glucose is oxidized to two molecules of pyruvic acid. The difference between them is that alcohol fermentation yield two molecules of ATP also.
What is one true distinction between fermentation and cellular respiration?
