<u>Answer:</u> The amount of kilocalories contained in the given serving of soup is 0.137 kCal

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>As per the USDA:</u>

Carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram, protein provides 4 calories per gram, and fat provides 9 calories per gram.

We are given

Mass of fat in the soup serving = 5.0 g

Mass of carbohydrates in the soup serving = 20.0 g

Mass of protein in the soup serving = 3.0 g

Conversion factor used:  1 kCal = 1000 Cal

Applying unitary method:

  • <u>For Fat:</u>

1 gram of fat provides 9 calories

So, 5.0 gram of fat will provide = \frac{9}{1}\times 5.0=45Cal=0.045kCal

  • <u>For Carbohydrates:</u>

1 gram of carbohydrates provides 4 calories

So, 20.0 gram of carbohydrates will provide =\frac{4}{1}\times 20.0=80Cal=0.080kCal

  • <u>For Proteins:</u>

1 gram of proteins provides 4 calories

So, 3.0 gram of fat will provide = \frac{4}{1}\times 3=12Cal=0.012kCal

Total kilocalories per serving = [0.045 + 0.080 + 0.012] kCal = 0.137 kCal

Hence, the amount of kilocalories contained in the given serving of soup is 0.137 kCal
