Question

In the following chemical equation, identify the products and reactants and indicate whether or not the equation is balanced. If not, balance the chemical equation. 6CO2 6H2O---->C6H12O6 6O2

Answer 1

Answer:

a). The products are C6H12O6 O2 and the reactants are CO2 + H20 + (solar (light) energy)

b). The reaction chemical reaction is balanced from the number of moles of reactants and products

Explanation:

Through photosynthesis green plants, some protistans and some bacteria in the presence of energy from sunlight, produce glucose as well as oxygen from carbon dioxide and water.

It is a chemical reaction taking place in green plant to produce food which it uses to survive.

Photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide, water and solar energy in the leaves of a plant for it to take place.

The equation for photosynthesis is as follows: 6CO2 + 6H20 + (solar (light) energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2

The products are C6H12O6 O2

and the reactants are CO2 + H20 + (solar (light) energy)

The reaction chemical reaction is balanced from the number of moles of reactants and products
