Photosynthesis equation
« on: September 15, 2010, 08:42:16 PM »
If  I have energy + 24CO2 + 6H2O how many molecules of glucose will be produced.
I think it will only be one because I will still only have 12 Hydrogen atoms available to make glucose. Is this correct?

Yes, H2O in this case is the limiting reagent.
