A palm wine seller stopped a bottle of his palm wine in his stall and after a few hours the bottle exploded. Which of the following equations represents the enzyme's reaction that occurred?

Correct Answer A. \( \mathrm{C}_6\mathrm{H}_{12}\mathrm{O} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{C}_6\mathrm{H}_{14} + 2 \mathrm{CO} + 2 \mathrm{CO}_2 \)

B. \( \mathrm{C}_6\mathrm{H}_{12}\mathrm{OH} \rightarrow \mathrm{CH}_{2} = \mathrm{CH}_2 + \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} \)

C. \( \mathrm{C}_6\mathrm{H}_{12}\mathrm{OH} + \) dil \( \mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{SO}_4 \rightarrow \mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_3\mathrm{O} \)

D. \( \mathrm{C}_6\mathrm{H}_{12}\mathrm{O}_6 \rightarrow \mathrm{C}_2\mathrm{H}_5\mathrm{OH} + \mathrm{CO}_2 \)

Correct Answer

Correct Option:

\( \mathrm{C}_6\mathrm{H}_{12}\mathrm{O} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{C}_6\mathrm{H}_{14} + 2 \mathrm{CO} + 2 \mathrm{CO}_2 \)
