In the process of photosynthesis, plants use carbon dioxide (co2), water (h2o), and light energy to produce a sugar (c6h12o6) and oxygen (o2). in the process of aerobic respiration, animals and plants release energy from sugar and oxygen and produce carbon dioxide and water. the chemical equations that describe these reactions look like this:

6co2 + 6h2o + light = c6h12o6 + 6o2 c6h12o6 + 6o2 = 6co2 + 6h2o + energy

how do these equations explain why the total amount of o2 and co2 remains the same?

1. suppose a reaction mixture, when diluted with water, afforded 300 ml of an aqueous solution of 30 g of the reaction product malononitrile [ch2(cn)2], which is to be isolated by extraction with ether. the solubility of malononitrile in ether at room temperature is 20.0 g/100 ml, and in water is 13.3 g/100 ml. what weight of malononitrile would be recovered by extraction with (a) three 100-ml portions of ether and (b) one 300-ml portion of ether? suggestion: for each extraction, let x equal the weight extracted into the ether layer. in part (a), the concentration in the ether layer is x/100 and in the water layer is (30 x)/300; the ratio of these quantities is equal to k 20/13.3.
