Question

Which is the correct chemical equation for photosynthesis?

Answer 1

Answer: 6(CO2)+6(H20)
Carbon=6
Oxygen=18
Hydrogen=12

Answer 2

Answer:

The corretc chemical equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2+6H2O---> C6H12O6+6O2, the first one.

Explanation:

  The plant absorbs carbon dioxide along with water, where, through reaction and the action of sunlight (where it acts as a chemical reaction activator), it produces sugar, oxygen and water. This reaction occurs in chloroplasts, more precisely in leaf thylakoids, where occur the photochemical phase. These are chemical reactions of great importance to the plant, because photosynthesis is what produces the food of the plants and keeps them alive.

   The chemical phase, also called the Calvin cycle or carbon-reducing photosynthetic cycle, occurs in the stroma and comprises a set of reactions that do not depend on light, differently what occurs inside the thylakoids. There, carbon dioxide is fixed by combining it with ribulose diphosphate (RuDP). NADPH and ATP electrons produced in the photochemical phase are used in the production of phosphoglyceride aldehyde (PGAL), which can follow two pathways - intervene in the regeneration of ribulose diphosphate or be used in glucose synthesis.The non-light dependent phase requires the presence of ATP, NADPH and CO2. The end products of this phase are glucose, ADP + Pi, NADP + and RuDP.
