The photosynthetic reaction of water splitting to removeis initially described as follows:

${\mathrm{nCO}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+{\mathrm{nH}}_2\mathrm{O}鈫�{\left({\mathrm{CH}}_2\mathrm{O}\right)}_{\mathrm{n}}+{\mathrm{nO}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)$

If glucose ${\mathrm{C}}_6{\mathrm{H}}_{12}{\mathrm{O}}_6$is produced as a result of the photosynthetic process, the equation may be rewritten as

$6{\mathrm{CO}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+6{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}鈫�{\left({\mathrm{CH}}_2\mathrm{O}\right)}_6+6{\mathrm{O}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)$

Gibb's energy change (free energy change) may thus be written as:
role="math" localid="1663310762875" $\begin{array}{rcl}鈭�{\mathrm{G}}_{{\mathrm{rxn}}_1}& =& \underset{}{\overset{}{鈭�}}鈭�{\mathrm{G}}_{\mathrm{products}}-\underset{}{\overset{}{鈭�}}鈭�{\mathrm{G}}_{\mathrm{reactants}}\\ & =& \left[1\mathrm{mol}脳鈭�\mathrm{G}\left({\mathrm{C}}_6{\mathrm{H}}_{12}{\mathrm{O}}_6\right)+6\mathrm{mol}脳鈭�\mathrm{G}\left({\mathrm{O}}_2\right)\right]-\left[\left(6\mathrm{mol}脳鈭�\mathrm{G}\left({\mathrm{CO}}_2\right)+6\mathrm{mol}脳鈭�\mathrm{G}\left({\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\right)\right)\right]\\ & =& \left[1\mathrm{mol}脳-910.56\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{mol}+6\mathrm{mol}脳0.00\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{mol}\right]-\left[6\mathrm{mol}脳-394.40\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{mol}+6\mathrm{mol}脳-288.60\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{mol}\right]\\ & =& 2793.04\mathrm{kJ}\end{array}$

The process is not spontaneous, but it is catalyzed by numerous enzymes found in the cells.

The process may be stated similarly for chemosynthetic bacteria,

${\mathrm{nCO}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+{\mathrm{nH}}_2\mathrm{S}鈫�{\left({\mathrm{CH}}_2\mathrm{O}\right)}_{\mathrm{n}}+{\mathrm{nSO}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)$

Assume that glucoseis produced as a result of this reaction, then the equation becomes

$6{\mathrm{CO}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+6{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{S}鈫�{\left({\mathrm{CH}}_2\mathrm{O}\right)}_6+6{\mathrm{SO}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)$

Gibb's energy change (free energy change) may thus be written as
$\begin{array}{rcl}鈭�{\mathrm{G}}_{{\mathrm{rxn}}_2}& =& \underset{}{\overset{}{鈭�}}鈭�{\mathrm{G}}_{\mathrm{products}}-\underset{}{\overset{}{鈭�}}鈭�{\mathrm{G}}_{\mathrm{reactants}}\\ & =& \left[1\mathrm{mol}脳鈭�\mathrm{G}\left({\mathrm{C}}_6{\mathrm{H}}_{12}{\mathrm{O}}_6\right)+6\mathrm{mol}脳鈭�\mathrm{G}\left({\mathrm{SO}}_2\right)\right]-\left[\left(6\mathrm{mol}脳鈭�\mathrm{G}\left({\mathrm{CO}}_2\right)+6\mathrm{mol}脳鈭�\mathrm{G}\left({\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{S}\right)\right)\right]\\ & =& \left[1\mathrm{mol}脳-910.56\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{mol}+6\mathrm{mol}脳-300.20\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{mol}\right]-\left[6\mathrm{mol}脳-394.40\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{mol}+6\mathrm{mol}脳-288.60\mathrm{kJ}/\mathrm{mol}\right]\\ & =& 1386.24\mathrm{kJ}\end{array}$

Because Gibb's energy change is lower, the reaction is more spontaneous, using less energy to create the same type of carbohydrate (as glucose, for example).

Therefore, $鈭�\mathrm{G}$is lower, the ${\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{S}$reaction is more energetically advantageous.
