Question

the general formula for photosynthesis is ___.
a c₆h₁₂o₆ → 6co₂ + 6h₂o.
b c₆h₁₂o₆ + 6o₂ → 6co₂ + 6h₂o.
c 6co₂ + 6h₂o → c₆h₁₂o₆ + 6o₂
d 6o₂ + 6h₂o → c₆h₁₂o₆ + 6co₂
e 6co₂ + 6o₂ → c₆h₁₂o₆ + 6h₂o

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, algae, and some bacteria use sunlight to convert carbon - dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. The correct chemical equation for this process is 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆+ 6O₂.

Answer:

C. 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
