What is the chemical equation for photosynthesis?
A6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
BC6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O
CCO2 + H2O -> C2H4 + O2
D6CO2 + 6O2 -> C6H12O6 + 6H2O
✓ Correct Answer: A — 6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Photosynthesis converts six molecules of carbon dioxide and six molecules of water into one molecule of glucose and six molecules of oxygen.
