What is photolysis?

Answer 1

photolysis, or photodecomposition is a chemical reaction in which a chemical compound is broken down by photons. It is defined as the interaction of one or more photons with one target molecule.

Answer 2

In photolysis, the solar energy absorbed by the chloroplasts is used to split water into hydrogen ions (H+) and oxygen gas. Two water molecules are consumed for every four electrons transferred to a photosystem. The solar energy/ electrons that are captured by the pigments in the photosystems are then used to form additional stable energy-rich molecules and to make ATP from ADP and Pi.

Answer 3

The three products of photolysis are:

1. Oxygen

2. Hydrogen- Which then goes to the calvin cycle

3. Electrons- from the sun to aid in balancing NADPH+ to eventually make glucose in the calvin cycle.

Answer 4

A chemical compound is changed by it's exposure to photons during photolysis. While the process is occurring, electrons are released as energy and photolysis is complete.

Answer 5

Aqueous glucose and atmospheric Oxygen (O2).

Answer 6

All that hapens is that they mix!!!! water+cabondioxide=glucose+oxergen producing food for the plant>

Answer 7

Oxygen and water

Answer 8

in photolysis woter molecules are split
