The process by which plants use energy from the sun to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (sugar) and oxygen is called photosynthesis. Give this process as the chemical equation using the symbols for the product and reactant such as

Carbon dioxide-CO2
Glucose C6H12O6
Oxygen-O2
Sunlight-sunlight
Water-H2O

1 answer

The chemical equation for photosynthesis is:

6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight → C6H12O6 + 6O2
