Question
- use the word bank to complete the chemical equation for photosynthesis. word bank •6o₂ •6co₂ •6h₂o + + + +
The chemical equation for photosynthesis is \( 6CO_2 + 6H_2O + \text{light energy}
ightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2 \). So we need to fill in the reactants and products according to this equation.
Step 1: Identify Reactants of Photosynthesis
The reactants for photosynthesis are carbon dioxide (\( 6CO_2 \)), water (\( 6H_2O \)) and light energy. So the first three boxes (reactants side) should be filled with \( 6CO_2 \), \( 6H_2O \), and "light energy" in order (or considering the order of addition, but typically the equation is written as \( 6CO_2 + 6H_2O + \text{light energy} \)).
Step 2: Identify Products of Photosynthesis
The products of photosynthesis are glucose (\( C_6H_{12}O_6 \)) and oxygen (\( 6O_2 \)). So the last two boxes (products side) should be filled with \( C_6H_{12}O_6 \) and \( 6O_2 \) in order.
Putting it all together, the equation is \( 6CO_2 + 6H_2O + \text{light energy}
ightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2 \)

From left to right (top to bottom for the boxes): \( 6CO_2 \), \( 6H_2O \), light energy, \( C_6H_{12}O_6 \), \( 6O_2 \) (assuming the first three are reactants and the last two are products with the arrow in between)
