Detailed explanation-1: -The reaction C 6 H 12 O 6 ( aq ) + 6 O 2 ( g ) → 6 CO 2 ( g ) + 6 H 2 O ( l ) + ∆ Glucose Oxygen carbon water heat dioxide is exothermic.
Detailed explanation-2: -Solution : The given equation represents aerobic respiration. X is oxygen in the given equation.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The chemical reaction for photosynthesis is:6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. The chemical reaction for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O.
