Chapter 16, Problem 5P
To determine

The temperature change of the person and whether the process is reversible or irreversible if a 60 Kg person consumes about 2000 kcal of food in one day and 10% of this food energy is converted into thermal energy and cannot leave the body. It is given that 1 kcal = 4180 J.

A person consumes about 2700 Cal a day. 1 Cal = 4186 J, and 1 kWh = 860 Cal. Part A What is this energy in joules? (2 sig figs) Part B What is this energy in kilowatt-hours? (2 sig figs) Part C If a power company charges about 10 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, how much would this energy cost per day if the person bought it from the power company? (2 sig figs)
Isomerization reaction is the chemical process by which a compound is transformed into any of its isomeric forms with the same chemical composition but with different structure or configuration and, hence, generally with different physical and chemical properties. For example, propane or propylene can be converted into cyclopropane in an isomerization reaction. Assume 255 g of propene (propylene) are converted into cyclopropane at 25 oC as shown below: C3H6(g, propylene) → C3H6(g, cyclopropane) Calculate the change in enthalpy by showing each step by using the related enthalpy of combustion and formation also with Hess's law for the above-mentioned condition by using the data given below:
