	~~==Oxygen evolution in nature==~~
	Photosynthetic oxygen evolution is the fundamental process by which breathable oxygen is generated in earth's [[biosphere]]. The reaction is part of the [[light-dependent reaction]]s of photosynthesis in [[cyanobacteria]] and the [[chloroplast]]s of [[green algae]] and [[plant]]s. It utilizes the energy of [[light]] to split a water molecule into its [[proton]]s and ~~[[electron]]s for photosynthesis. Free oxygen is generated as a by-product of~~ this ~~reaction, and is released into the [[Earth's atmosphere\|atmosphere]].~~

	~~===Biochemical reaction===~~
	~~Photosynthetic oxygen evolution occurs via the light-dependent oxidation of water to molecular oxygen and can be written as the following simplified chemical reaction:~~

	~~2H<sub>2</sub>O <math>\longrightarrow</math> 4e<sup>-</sup> + 4H<sup>+</sup> + O<sub>2</sub>~~

	The reaction requires the energy of four [[photon]]s. The electrons from the oxidized water molecules replace electrons in the P<sub>680</sub> component of [[photosystem\|photosystem II]] that have been removed into an [[electron transport chain]] via light-dependent [[excited state\|excitation]] and [[resonance energy transfer]] onto [[plastoquinone]].<ref name="Raven">{{cite book \| last = Raven \| first = Peter H. \| coauthors = Ray F.

	~~===History of discovery===~~
	~~It was not until the end of the 18th century that~~ [[Joseph Priestley]] discovered by accident the ability of plants to "restore" air that had been "injured" by the burning of a candle. He followed up on the experiment by showing that air "restored" by [[vegetation]] was ''"not at all inconvenient to a [[mouse]]."'' He was later awarded a medal for his discoveries that: ''"...no vegetable grows in vain... but cleanses and purifies our atmosphere."'' Priestley's experiments were followed up by [[Jan Ingenhousz]], a Dutch physician, who showed that "restoration" of air only worked in the presence of light and green plant parts.<ref name="Raven"/>

	Ingenhousz suggested in 1796 that CO<sub>2</sub> ([[carbon dioxide]]) is split during photosynthesis to release oxygen, while the [[carbon]] combined with water to form [[carbohydrate]]s. While this hypothesis was attractive and reasonable and thus widely accepted for a long time, it was later proven incorrect. Graduate student [[C.B. Van Niel]] at [[Stanford University]] found that [[purple sulfur bacteria]] reduce carbon to carbohydrates, but accumulate [[sulfur]] instead of releasing oxygen. He boldly proposed that, in analogy to the sulfur bacteria's forming elemental sulfur from H<sub>2</sub>S ([[hydrogen sulfide]]), plants would form oxygen from H<sub>2</sub>O (water). In 1937, this hypothesis was corroborated by the discovery that plants are capable of producing oxygen in the absence of CO<sub>2</sub>. This discovery was made by [[Robin Hill (biochemist)\|Robin Hill]], and subsequently the light-driven release of oxygen in the absence of CO<sub>2</sub> was called the ''Hill reaction''. Our current knowledge of the mechanism of oxygen evolution during photosynthesis was further established in experiments tracing [[isotopes of oxygen]] from water to oxygen gas.<ref name="Raven"/>

[[Submarine]]s and [[spacecraft]] utilize either an [[electrolysis\|electrolytic]] mechanism (water or solid oxide electrolysis) or [[chemical oxygen generator]]s as part of their life support equipment.
