|
CO2 + H2O + sunlight = C6H12O6 + 6O2
|
|
|
oxygen + carbon dioxide + water = sunlight + sugar
|
|
|
sunlight + CO2 = H2O + C6H12O6 + O2
|
|
|
glucose + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water + sunlight

Detailed explanation-1: -A simple general equation for photosynthesis follows: 6 6CO2 + 12 H2O + photons → C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O (carbon dioxide + water + light energy). We know well that this is the way our environment is recycled through plants.
Detailed explanation-2: -The chemical equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2. 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2. In plants, the process of photosynthesis takes place in the mesophyll of the leaves, inside the chloroplasts. Chloroplasts contain disc-shaped structures called thylakoids, which contain the pigment chlorophyll.
Detailed explanation-3: -Plants make sugar by using energy from sunlight to transform carbon dioxide (CO2), a gas absorbed from the air, and water (H20) taken from the ground by roots into glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2). This process is called photosynthesis and occurs in the chloroplast of the plant cell.
