<u>When the zebra eats grass, it gets energy from the sun that has been stored in the grass. Similarly, the lion obtains energy stored in the zebra. The zebra and lion both obtain the sun's energy indirectly from the energy that the grass obtained through photosynthesis. </u>
Answer:
First check to make sure you have a balanced equation
Second use mole ratios to set up what you need to know
Finally convert the moles to grams using the correct molecular weight
I will get you started
According to the reaction above, one mole of Magnesium Nitrate is produced from 2 moles of Nitric Acid
1 mole of Mg(NO3)2/2 moles of HNO3
5 grams of Nitric acid contains
5 g * 1 mole/63 g of Nitric Acid = 0.079365079 moles

Answer:
A) dietary fiber isn't used by the body.
Explanation:
The food we eat contains certain nutritional contents that provides energy, measured in calories (CAL) to the body. A procedure called BOMB CALORIMETRY can be used to determine the energy contents of these foods. The energy-supplying macromolecules contained in food substances we eat are carbohydrate, protein, fats etc.
Bomb calorimetry uses the method of burning the food substance in a device called bomb calorimeter, and measure the caloric content of the burnt food. Bomb calorimetry measures all the present calories in a food substance, which can include dietary fibers. Due to this reason, it is considered a poor choice in determining the number of nutritional calories in a food substance.
Dietary fibers are indigestible carbohydrates that cannot be broken down and used by the body. They pass along the alimentary canal until they are egested. Hence, they are no source of nutrients to the body. Since bomb calorimetry measures all calories including dietary fibers, it is said to overestimate the caloric content of food substances.
