Oxygen atoms in the oxygen gas produced by photosynthesis comes from what?

The oxygen released by photosynthesis comes from both water and carbon dioxide. 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy --> C6H12O6 + 6O2.

∙ 7y agoIt comes from water. Pholtolysis of water produce Oxygen
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoThe plant absorbs carbon dioxide (CO2). The plant uses the carbon (C) and it lets out the waste product oxygen (O2)
The correct Answere is H2O

How many oxygen atoms are needed to start photosynthesis reaction?
2 atoms
What are the 3 substances that are produced when water molecules are broken down in the light reactions?
Photolysis of water produce Oxygen. This is the main byproduct.
Where does oxygen comes from?
Oxygen is chemically released through photosynthesis in green plants. The atoms of oxygen, however, were created in the cores of stars that exploded long before our Solar System began to form
How many diatomic Oxygen molecules does it takes to break down glucose?
Once molecule of glucose contains 6 atoms of carbon, 12 atoms of hydrogen and 6 atoms of oxygen.
How do plant put out oxygen?
they convert it using photosynthesisPlants absorb carbon dioxide (which has 2 oxygen atoms and one carbon atom), and water (which has 2 hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom), and use sunlight to combine one atom of oxygen with one atom of carbon and one atom of hydrogen, thus forming the simple carbohydrate it uses to grow. What's left over from all this is the two oxygen atoms which the plant expels from it's leaves as a byproduct.
During photosynthesis water molecules are split into atoms of oxygen and what?
Since water is comprised of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, when it is split into atoms by plants during photosynthesis the only other atoms other than oxygen that are produced are hydrogen atoms.
How many molecules of oxygen produced along with one modecule of sugar?
The answer is six.
How many oxygen atoms are left after photosynthesis?
6
How many oxygen atoms are needed to start photosynthesis reaction?
2 atoms
What is combined with two oxygen atoms and helps plants engage in photosynthesis?
It is carbon that is combined with the oxygen in photosynthesis to make carbon dioxide (CO2).
Could oxygen be produced from a chemical reaction if none of the reactants contained oxygen atoms?
No.
How is the element oxygen made not definition?
The element Oxygen* is made atomically by the combination of 8 electrons, 8 protons and 8 neutrons. The compound, formally known as Dioxygen, O2 is formed when two oxygen atoms bond together. Oxygen is produced from water by photosynthesis of plants and also by bacteria's and algaes.
How does the light reaction of photosynthesis affect our supply of oxygen?
Well the light reactions produce oxygen gas which will affect our supply of oxygen gas.The oxygen gas is produced when the hydrogen atoms of the water molecules lose their electrons to photosystem 2 and the oxygen atom cannot exist on its own and must be diatomic in order to achieve octet configuration
Are oxygen atoms different to oxygen atoms?
well, they are the same thing unless there are now a isotope
What kind of atoms are in a molecule of oxygen?
Oxygen is composed of oxygen atoms.
Can the equation for photosynthesis be balanced?
Yes. The equation for photosynthesis can be balanced. You are simply using light to strip two hydrogen atoms from one oxygen atom. You will have H2O plus 2 photons produces 2 single atoms of Hydrogen and One atom of free Oxygen. Your free atom of Oxygen will soon link up with another Oxygen atom and create O2. The hydrogen atoms will participate in some other reactions.
Are the products of photosynthesis glucose and oxygen?
Photosynthetic reactions remove the oxygen atoms from water (H20) and turn them into free oxygen gas (02). So yes, photosynthesis produces oxygen as a (waste) product, its primary product is glucose to provide "food" for the plant. Yes.
