Answer:

C) 170 Cal

Explanation:

We are given the composition of a food sample as;

Carbohydrate = 25 g

fat = 8 g

Protein = 5 g

We are needed to determine the energy content of the food;

We need to know the amount energy yielded by each food substance.

That is; carbohydrates and proteins generate 4 calories per gram while fats generates 9 calories per gram.

Therefore;

Amount of energy will be;

= (25 × 4 cal/g) + (8g × 9 cal/g) + (5 g × 4 cal/g)

= 172 cal

Approximately , 170 calories

Therefore, the energy content will be 170 calories

Oxana [17]
<span>12.4 g First, calculate the molar masses by looking up the atomic weights of all involved elements. Atomic weight manganese = 54.938044 Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 Atomic weight aluminium = 26.981539 Molar mass MnO2 = 54.938044 + 2 * 15.999 = 86.936044 g/mol Now determine the number of moles of MnO2 we have 30.0 g / 86.936044 g/mol = 0.345081265 mol Looking at the balanced equation 3MnO2+4Al→3Mn+2Al2O3 it's obvious that for every 3 moles of MnO2, it takes 4 moles of Al. So 0.345081265 mol / 3 * 4 = 0.460108353 mol So we need 0.460108353 moles of Al to perform the reaction. Now multiply by the atomic weight of aluminum. 0.460108353 mol * 26.981539 g/mol = 12.41443146 g Finally, round to 3 significant figures, giving 12.4 g</span>

Why are nanowhiskers used to repel stains on fabrics??
WINSTONCH [101]

Nanowhiskers or cellulose nanofibers are nano-structured cellulose produced by bacteria. They have relatively high crystallinity and ability to form a dense network held together by inter-fibrillar bonds that has the tendency to act as a barrier through their film-forming properties to which they can repel stains on fabric.
