have you ever heard of rice wine?
i was just wondering how the rice can ferment.
fermentation converts a sugar into an alcohol.. or an acid..
is there a natural sugar present in rice?
or is it the starch in the rice that gets fermented.

I know nothing about Science. All I know is what an atom is made of. I want to mix chemicals together to make a non-toxic compound that is somehow useful. I know I'm not being too clear but I think you can grasp my idea. I just want to work with science.

Hi,

I found an 1837 Half Dollar that was buried. At first, I thought it was a large cent because of the color, but after years of being in the ground, this coin has a thick residue of dirt, etc. on it.

I am usually against cleaning coins, but in this case, I am looking to remove the dirt buildup, etc. Anyone know how to do this without harming the coin? I know scrubbing it in any way will damage it further.

Thanks a bunch

I'm not talking about the easy binary compounds where u can just measure the electronegativity. I'm talking about polyatomic ions/atoms with covalent bonds. For CO supercscript 3 with subscript 2- ... How would u know if it's covalent or ionic?
