8 0

Photosynthesis is the chemical process used in plants to convert energy in the form of sunlight into chemical energy in the form of sugar or other carbohydrates.

<span><span>General equation:<span><span>carbon dioxide + electron donor + light energy ==> carbohydrate + oxidized electron donor + water</span><span>CO2 + 2H2A + photons ==> [CH2O] + 2A + H2O

</span></span></span><span>Net equation: Because glucose, a six carbon sugar, is often an intermediate product of photosynthesis, the net equation is frequently written as:</span></span>carbon dioxide + water + light energy ==> glucose + oxygen + water<span>6CO2 + 12H2O + Light Energy ==> C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O</span><span>Balanced equation: The net equation above can be simplified as:<span><span>6CO2 + 6H2O + Light Energy </span>==><span> C6H12O6 + 6O<span>2</span></span></span></span>
