Chapter 20, Problem 20.57(choose chapter or problem)
Photosynthesis in plants can be represented by the following overall reaction: 6CO2(g) 1 6H2O(l) 8888n C6H12O6(s) 1 6O2(g) Algae grown in water containing some radioactive 18O (in H2 18O) evolve oxygen gas with the same isotopic composition as the oxygen in the water. When algae growing in water containing only 16O were furnished with carbon dioxide containing 18O, no 18O was found to be evolved from the oxygen gas produced. What conclusions about photosynthesis can be drawn from these experiments?
