About how many total kilocalories does one serving of crackers provide if it contains 5 g of fat, 22 g of carbohydrates, and 3 g of protein?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer will be-0.145 kcal/serve.

The Carbohydrates on oxidation produces 4 calories per gram, the proteins provide 4 calories per gram and the Fats provides 9 calories per gram.

If one serve of crackers contains

1. Carbohydrates- 22 g, will produce  calories- 22 x 4= 88 calories

2. Proteins- 3 g will produce  calories- 3x4= 12 Calories

3. Fats- 5 g will produce  calories- 5 x 9= 45 calorie  

Therefore, the total calories in a single serve will be  88 +12 + 45

Total calorie = 145 calorie  

                     OR

Kilocalorie= 145/1000 = 0.145 kcal/serve.

Thus, 0.145 kcal/serve is the correct answer.
