Explanation / Answer

checking the chemical aspect of photosynthesis – production of Glucose(food) and oxygen in plants by using carbon dioxide and water,

Carbon dioxide + water =====> Glucose + oxygen

CO2 + H2O =========> C6H12O6 + O2

but the reaction is not a balanced chemical equation, so need to equalize the number of atoms on both reactants and products side

6CO2 (g)+ 6H2O(l) =========> C6H12O6 (aq)+ 6O2 (g)

phases given in the brackets as g,l, and aq for gas,solid and aqueous states respectively.
