Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which equation below show photosynthesis?
A
H2O+ O2
B
C6H12O6 + CO2
C
C6H12O6 + O2
D
ATP + O2 + CO2
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This means that the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, the products.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: This is an oxidation or combustion reaction, or more specifically, the aerobic respiration equation. Here, the hydrocarbon glucose C6H12O6 C 6 H 12 O 6 is oxidized to give carbon dioxide, water, and energy which are the products of aerobic respiration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Therefore, the balance chemical equation is: 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2.
