Answer:

Chemical Equation of the process of Photosynthesis

Explanation:

The process of photosynthesis is commonly written as :

Chemical Equation for process of Photosynthesis :

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 . A simple word equation that can be used to describe the process of photosynthesis is :

Carbon-dioxide + Water → Glucose + Oxygen + Water

The first step of photosynthesis is the absorption of light energy and the loss of electrons from chlorophyll . Photosynthesis is a process by the plant to produce food by absorbing light of a certain wavelength and used to convert water and carbon dioxide and minerals into oxygen-rich and energy-rich organic compounds . This is called oxygenic photosynthesis and is by far the most common type of photosynthesis used by living organisms . Carbon dioxide is converted into sugars in a process called carbon fixation ; photosynthesis captures energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide into carbohydrate .
