Hi there!
Photosynthesis involves carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) as the reactants with glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2) as the products. We can write a basic chemical equation:
[tex]CO_{2} + H_{2} O - (light) -> C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + O_{2}[/tex]
The equation has to be balanced, so the final equation for photosynthesis would be:
[tex]6CO_{2} + 6H_{2} O - (light) -> C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + 6O_{2}[/tex]
The chemicals in correct order are:
[tex]CO_{2}\\H_{2}O\\ C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}\\ O_{2}[/tex]
