(a)
Interpretation:
Energy unit conversion needs to be done between Cal and cal.
Concept Introduction:
The Calorie and calorie are different from each other by their definition. Calorie is kilocalorie and the unit is represented as kcal or Cal. Similarly, calorie is represented as cal.
The following conversion factor can be used:

- One way to lose weight is to exercise! Walking briskly at 4.0 miles per hour for an hour consumes about 400 kcal of energy. How many hours would you have to walk at 4.0 miles per hour to lose one pound of body fat? One gram of body fat is equivalent to 7.7 kcal of energy. There are 454 g in 1 lb.arrow_forwardA rebreathing gas mask contains potassium superoxide, KO2, which reacts with moisture in the breath to give oxygen. 4KO2(s)+2H2O(l)4KOH(s)+3O2(g) Estimate the grams of potassium superoxide required to supply a persons oxygen needs for one hour. Assume a person requires 1.00 102 kcal of energy for this time period. Further assume that this energy can be equated to the heat of combustion of a quantity of glucose, C6H12O6, to CO2(g) and H2O(l). From the amount of glucose required to give 1.00 102 kcal of heat, calculate the amount of oxygen consumed and hence the amount of KO2 required. The ff0 for glucose(s) is 1273 kJ/mol.arrow_forwardxplain why aluminum cans make good storage containers for soft drinks. Styrofoam cups can be used to keep coffee hot and cola cold. How can this be?arrow_forward
- A student used a coffee-cup calorimeter to determine the enthalpy of solution for NH4NO3.When NH4NO3 is added to water, there is a decrease in temperature of the solution. Is the solution process exothermic or endothermic? (a) endothermic (b) exothermicarrow_forwardHydrogen chloride gas dissolves in water to form hydrochloric acid (an ionic solution). HCl(g)H2OH+(aq)+Cl(aq) Find H for the above reaction. The data are given in Table 6.2.arrow_forwardHypothetical elements A2 and B2 react according to the following equation, forming the compound AB. A2(aq)+B2(aq)2AB(aq);H=+271kJ/mol If solutions A2(aq) and B2(aq), starting at the same temperature, are mixed in a coffee-cup calorimeter, the reaction that occurs is a exothermic, and the temperature of the resulting solution rises. b endothermic, and the temperature of the resulting solution rises. c endothermic, and the temperature of the resulting solution falls. d exothermic, and the temperature of the resulting solution falls. e exothermic or endothermic, depending on the original and final temperatures.arrow_forward
- Chlorine dioxide, ClO2, is a reddish yellow gas used in bleaching paper pulp. The average speed of a ClO2 molecule at 25C is 306 m/s. What is the kinetic energy (in joules) of a ClO2 molecule moving at this speed?arrow_forwardis 2 NO2(g) → N2O4(g) + 19 kcal a exothermic or endothermicarrow_forwardA serving size of four cookies contains 7 g of fat, 16 g of carbohydrates, and 5 g of protein. If walking 1 mile consumes 170 kJ of energy, how many miles must you walk to burn off enough calories to eat four cookies? Assume the energy content of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins are 8 kcal/g, 4 kcal/g, and 4 kcal/g, respectively. 1 cal = 4.184 J.arrow_forward
- A serving size of eight cookies contains 7 g of fat, 17 g of carbohydrates, and 8 g of protein. If walking 1 mile consumes 170 kJ of energy, how many miles must you walk to burn off enough calories to eat eight cookies? Assume the energy content of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins are 8 kcal/g, 4 kcal/g, and 4 kcal/g, respectively. 1 cal = 4.184 J.arrow_forwardA serving size of six cookies contains 6 g of fat, 23 g of carbohydrates, and 9 g of protein. If walking 1 mile consumes 170 kJ of energy, how many miles must you walk to burn off enough calories to eat six cookies? Assume the energy content of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins are 8 kcal/g, 4 kcal/g, and 4 kcal/g, respectively. 1 cal = 4.184 J.arrow_forwardThe formation of rust (Fe2O3) from solid iron and oxygen gas releases -1.7 103 kJ. 4 Fe(s) + 3 O2(g) → 2 Fe2O3(s)ΔH = -1.7 103 kJ How many grams of rust form when 150 kcal are released?arrow_forward
