Photosynthesis is certainly critical, because neither plants nor animals could exist on Earth without it (ultimately, all animal derive their food from plants), but photosynthesis is a network of numerous reactions - which ONE is most important? Same applies to all of the metabolic processes that allow human beings and other animals to function -- ATP or Acetyl coA perhaps?
I'll go with the largest and most important SYNTHETIC chemical reaction, which I believe is unquestionably the Haber-Bosch reaction for making ammonia, a critical synthetic fertilizer without which the Earth could not support more than a modest fraction of the people living on it today:
N2 + 3H2 --> 2NH3

In what kind of reaction can the products form the reactants?
The type reaction that changes the reactants into products is called a chemical reaction. Most chemical reactions can run forward or backward.
Which part of a chemical reaction is most changed by enzyme activity?
Reaction equilibrium
What chemical change is most likely to involve bubbling or an odor?
This is a chemical reaction.
If the chemical properties of the substance have not changed has a chemical reaction occurred?
It depends: just try to relate, try to write a chemical equation for and see if there are byproducts. Most likely, if the same chemical still has its same properties After the reaction, a chemical reaction has not occurred.
What is the most important chemical reaction of the alkanes?
combustion

What do most chemical reaction do?
do not break bonds
What is the biggest chemical reaction from homemade stuff?
How big is the biggest chemical reaction depends on what you mean by "big." Is it a reaction with the most spectacular result, the most ingredients, the most steps, or the most of something else? One suggestion was making Luminol, which is an 8 step reaction, and each step is a chemical reaction its self. Look at NurdRage video on how to make it on YouTube

What is the most important chemical reaction of all?
Photosynthesis
Is a car rusrting a chemical reaction?
Most definitely.
What is the most important chemical reaction of the alkanes?
combustion
In a chemical reaction what does it take energy to do?
For most chemical reactions, energy is required to supply an "activation energy" required before reaction.
What is the strongest chemical in a science lab?
The strongest chemical in a science lab is Hydrogen Fluoride. The second strongest chemical is Hydrogen Chloride. Hydrogen Fluoride isn't the world's strongest chemical. The King of Liquids is the mixture of 1 Hydrogen Fluoride and 3 Hydrogen Chloride.
