ANSWER
Water splits to form 2H+ and O2
SOLUTION
The photolysis of water occurs during light reaction. The site for occurrence of photolysis is thylakoid lumen. The photolysis of water releases protons, which accumulate in the lumen and contribute to the electrochemical gradient of protons. The electrons released are used up to fill the electron hole in the reaction centre of PSII and oxygen molecule is released as by product of photosynthesis. The electrons released during photolysis of water are ultimately used to synthesize the reducing power for reducing carbon dioxide later on. The mineral ions required for photolysis of water are calcium, manganese and chlorine.
