What is the balanced equation for photosynthesis?

Answer:

6 CO₂ +  6 H₂O --> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ is the balanced equation for photosynthesis.

Explanation:

6 CO₂ +  6 H₂O --> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

Reactants                   Products

C-->6.                           C-->6

O--->12+6=18.      O--->6+12 =18

H--->12.                   H--->12

Since the number of C atoms ,O atoms and hydrogen atoms is equal from both sides of the equation ,we can say that

6 CO₂ +  6 H₂O --> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ is the balanced equation for photosynthesis.
