Question

an incomplete equation for photosynthesis is given. 6x + 6h₂o \xrightarrow{\text{light energy}} y + 6o₂. drag the compound names and chemical formulas to the appropriate table cells to identify compounds x and y. drag options: $\ce{c6h12o6}$, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, glucose, $\ce{h2}$, $\ce{co2}$; table with columns compound and chemical formula for x and y.

Explanation:

The photosynthesis equation is \( 6CO_2 + 6H_2O \xrightarrow{\text{light energy}} C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2 \). So, for compound X (reactant), it should be carbon dioxide with formula \( CO_2 \). For compound Y (product), it should be glucose with formula \( C_6H_{12}O_6 \).

Answer:

Compound	X	Y
Compound Name	carbon dioxide	glucose
