In plants, carbon dioxide and water combine to form glucose and oxygen. this process is known as photosynthesis.
which of the following is the balanced equation for this process?
a.
b.
c.
d.

Explanation:

Since the equation is not given, let us write and balance it:

  Reactants: Carbon dioxide (CO₂)

                      Water(H₂O)

 Products: Glucose(C₆H₁₂O₆)

                   Oxygen(O₂)

The reaction equation is shown below:

                  CO₂ + H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂

But the equation is not balanced:

    to balance the equation

          aCO₂ + bH₂O → cC₆H₁₂O₆ + dO₂

  for C:

         a = 6c, if c = 1 then a = 6

  for O:

        2a + b = 6c + 2d

  for H:

       2b = 12c, since c = 1, b = 6

In 2a + b = 6c + 2d, solving for d:

   2(6) + 6 = 6(1) + 2d

      18 = 6 + 2d

         d = 6

Therefore, the balanced equation is:

                       6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
