Pages 11 This preview shows page 7 -. 11th Jan 2017. Photosystem Ii An Overview Sciencedirect Topics The splitting of water at photosystem II is known as and results in the. . Up to 10 cash back To fully understand Photosystem II reactions is not only a satisfying intellectual pursuit but is also an important goal as we develop new solar technologies for the splitting of water into pure O2 and H2 for use as a potential fuel source. The electrons and hydrogen ions are used to power the creation of ATP and ultimately carbohydrates in later stages of photosynthesis. Pump hydrogen ions into the thylakoid space producing a concentration gradient. It is located in the thylakoid membrane of plants algae and cyanobacteria. Because water needs to be split in photosystem II so that the excited electrons that jump from the P680 chlorophyll pair into the reaction center. Oxygen hydrogen ions protons and electrons that are given to pho
