Write the balanced chemical equation for the process of photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis:

• Photosynthesis is the process of preparing food in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.
• In this process, the plant uses water from the soil, and carbon dioxide from the air.
• It occurs in green plants, certain algae, blue-green algae and bacteria.

Chemical Reaction

• Carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight results in the formation of glucose and oxygen.
• The balanced equation is as follows:
• $\underset{\mathrm{Carbon}\mathrm{dioxide}}{6{\mathrm{CO}}_2}+\underset{\mathrm{Water}}{6{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}}\stackrel{\mathrm{Sunlight},\mathrm{Chlorophyll}}{\to }\underset{\mathrm{Glucose}}{{\mathrm{C}}_6{\mathrm{H}}_{12}{\mathrm{O}}_6}+\underset{\mathrm{Oxygen}}{6{\mathrm{O}}_2}$
