The chemical equation for photosynthesis : 6C*O_{2} + 6H_{2}*O -> C_{6}*H_{12}*O_{5} + 6O_{2} suggests that blowing on a glass of water placed in a sunbeam will produce glucose and oxygen. Compare the chemical equation to the actual process of photosynthesis and explain why no reaction will occur if someone were to blow on a glass of water in a sunbeamExplain your answer in 1-2 simple sentences.
The chemical equation for photosynthesis represents the overall process of converting carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using sunlight energy. Blowing on a glass of water in a sunbeam would not produce glucose and oxygen because the necessary ingredients, such as carbon dioxide and chlorophyll, are not present in water for photosynthesis to occur.
