Question:

Balanced equation for the photosynthesis light-dependent and light-independent reaction?

What is the balanced equation for light dependent and independent reactions in photosynthesis, thanks.

Answer:

Light dep: 2 H2O + 2 NADP+ + 3 ADP + 3 Pi + light → 2 NADPH2 + 3 ATP + O2 (Non-Cyclic) Light indep: 3 CO2 + 9 ATP + 6 NADPH2 → C3H6O3-phosphate + 9 ADP + 8 Pi + 6 NADP+ + 3 H2O
