Predict: of the molecules shown on the chemicals pane, which do you think are reactants (ingredients) in photosynthesis? which do you think are products?

reactants: products:

explore: drag each molecule from the chemicals pane to the chloroplast on the photosynthesis pane. if a molecule is a reactant, it will stay in the chloroplast.

which molecules are reactants in photosynthesis?

observe: click add light and look at the output. what are the products of photosynthesis?



summarize: a chemical equation shows reactants on the left side of an arrow, and products on the right, like this: reactant + reactant ( product + product.

based on your observations, what is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?
