Question

1. the green aquatic plant represented in the diagram below was exposed to light for several hours. which gas would most likely be found in the greatest amount in the bubbles? carbon dioxide hydrogen nitrogen oxygen

Explanation:

Plants perform photosynthesis when exposed to light. The chemical equation for photosynthesis is \(6CO_2 + 6H_2O+light
ightarrow C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2\). In this process, oxygen (\(O_2\)) is a by - product. Carbon dioxide (\(CO_2\)) is used as a reactant, hydrogen (\(H_2\)) is not a significant product of plant photosynthesis in this context, and nitrogen (\(N_2\)) is not related to the photosynthetic process of green plants under these conditions.

Answer:

Oxygen
