In the lab you performed the Hill reaction which demonstrates the transfer of electrons from chlorophyll a to an electron acceptor DPIP, and the subsequent replacement of those electrons from water molecules, resulting in the release of O 2 . When DPIP accepts electrons it changes from blue to colourless. The reaction can be written as:

2H 2 O + 2DPIP light → 2DPIPH 2 + O 2 (in the presence of chloroplasts)

Which of the following statements is correct:
