Answer:

5 kilocalories

Explanation:

The heat is a way of energy and it can be measured by calories, but the calories of the heat (thermal calories) are different for the food Calories.

1 food Calories = 1000 thermal calories

5 food Calories = 5000 calories = 5 kilocalories

Thus, when a piece of candy is totally burned, the thermal calorie presented in it will be released as heat.

An 8.0 cm object is 40.0 cm from a concave mirror that has a focal length of 10.0 cm. Its image is 16.0 cm in front of the mirro
svet-max [94.6K]
 We can rearrange the mirror equation before plugging our values in. 
1/p = 1/f - 1/q. 
1/p = 1/10cm - 1/40cm
1/p = 4/40cm - 1/40cm = 3/40cm
40cm=3p  <-- cross multiplication
13.33cm = p

Now that we have the value of p, we can plug it into the magnification equation.

M=-16/13.33=1.2
1.2=h'/8cm
9.6=h'

So the height of the image produced by the mirror is 9.6cm.

2CO + 2NO → 2CO2 + N2 is it balannced
natita [175]

If the same atoms appear on both sides, then it's balanced.

In this reaction, there are 4 Oxygens, 2 Carbons, and 2 Nitrogens on each side.  So numerically, <em>it's balanced</em>.  But I don't know enough chemistry to say whether the reaction is possible.
