A carbohydrate sample weighing 0. 235 g was found to have a fuel value of 3. 84 Kilojoule. The fuel value of one gram of this carbohydrate, in nutritional calories is 3910 Cal.

<h3>What is Carbohydrates ?</h3>
  • In our daily life we usually uptake Carbohydrates as the primary source of energy. It contains 4 KCal/gm.
  • Examples of Carbohydrates are ; Starch, Bread, Rice, Milk, Soft drinks, Corn etc.
  • Carbohydrates are fast acting fuel because it breaks down into Sugar and Sugar is the main energy source of our brain and cells.

Now,

0.235 g Carbohydrate = 3.84 kilojoule

                                     = 3840 joule

1g Carbohydrate = 3840/0.235

                            = 16340.43 joule     [1 Cal = 4.1841]

1g carbohydrate = 16340.43/ 4.184 = 3905.5 Cal

Fuel value of 1 g Carbohydrate = 3905.5 Cal

                                                     = 3910 Cal


Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The fuel value of one gram of this carbohydrate, in nutritional calories is 3910 Cal.

The fuel value of one gram of this carbohydrate, in nutritional calories is 3910 cal.

  • A vast variety of both good and bad foods, including bread, beans, milk, popcorn, potatoes, cookies, spaghetti, soft drinks, corn, and cherry pie, include carbohydrates.
  • Because they work quickly and provide energy as soon as they are taken, carbohydrates—which have 4 kcal per gram—are the foods that are used as an energy source the most frequently.

From the given data,

0.235 g carbohydrate = 3.84 kj = 3840 joule

1g carbohydrate = 3840/0.235 = 16340.43 joule

(1 Cal = 4.1841)

1 g carbohydrate = 16340.43/ 4.184 = 3905.5 Cal

fuel value of 1 g carbohydrate = 3905.5 Cal

answer: 3910 Cal
