Question

question 2
which of the following shows the correctly balanced equation for photosynthesis?
○ h₂o + o₂ → co₂ + c₆h₁₂o₆
○ co₂ + h₂o → c₆h₁₂o₆ + o₂
○ 6co₂ + 6h₂o + light → c₆h₁₂o₆ + 6o₂
○ 6co₂ + 6h₂o → 6c + 6o₂

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use carbon - dioxide and water, in the presence of light, to produce glucose and oxygen. The balanced chemical equation has 6 molecules of carbon - dioxide, 6 molecules of water producing 1 molecule of glucose and 6 molecules of oxygen.

Answer:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
