Mrs. Zerlinsky wrote a chemical equation on the board and asked her class what should be changed to make it correct. She wrote:water + glucose
A
Water should be traded with oxygen.
B
Glucose should be traded with oxygen.
C
Water should be traded with carbon dioxide.
D
Glucose should be traded with carbon dioxide.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Zerlinsky wrote a chemical equation on the board and asked her class what should be changed to make it correct. She wrote:water + glucose → carbon dioxide + oxygen + energy. What should be changed to show the correct chemical reaction? Water should be traded with oxygen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Water should be traded with oxygen. What should be changed to show the correct chemical reaction? Water and carbon dioxide should both be moved to the products side, and glucose and oxygen should be moved to the reactants side.

Detailed explanation-3: -What should be changed to show the correct chemical reaction? Carbon dioxide should be traded with glucose, and energy should be shown on both sides. Water should by moved to the products side, and glucose and oxygen should both be moved to the reactants side.

Detailed explanation-4: -The balanced version is: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.) In simple terms: carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen.
