• B. $6CO_{2} + 12H_{2}O\underset{\text{Chlorophyll}}{\overset{\quad\text{Light}\quad}{\rightarrow}}C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} + 6H_{2}O + 6O_{2}$
• C. $12CO_{2} + 6H_{2}O\underset{\text{Chlorophyll}}{\overset{\quad\text{Light}\quad}{\rightarrow}}2C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} + 6O_{2}$
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$6CO_{2} + 12H_{2}O\underset{\text{Chlorophyll}}{\overset{\quad\text{Light}\quad}{\rightarrow}}C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} + 6H_{2}O + 6O_{2}$
