Answer:

5927.3488 calorie/g

Explanation:

For peanut butter:

Mass = 15 g

Initial temperature = 22.4 °C

Final temperature = 25.5 °C

Specific heat of calorimeter, C = 120 kJ/°C

Considering

Q=C\times (T_f-T_i)

Q=120\ kJ/^0C\times (25.5-22.4)\ ^0C

Q=372\ kJ

Also,

1 kJ = 239.006 calories

So, Heat = 372*239.006 calories = 88910.232 calories

15 g of the peanut butter gives 88910.232 calories

<u>So, the food caloric content of peanut butter = 88910.232 calories/ 15 g = 5927.3488 calorie/g</u>

There is 35 mg of sodium in a can of Coke. You determine it to be 28 mg. What is your percent error?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>20 %</h2>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

actual volume = 35 mg

error = 35 - 28 = 7

The percentage error is

P(\%) =  \frac{7}{35}  \times 100 \\  =  \frac{1}{5}  \times 100 \\  =  20

We have the final answer as

<h3>20 %</h3>

Hope this helps you

The mass % of Ca in CaSO4 is 29.45%. To calculate the mass of Ca present in a 25.6-g sample of this compound, the correct proced
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 29.45 / 100 x 25.6 = 7.5392 grams

Explanation:

It is given in the question that in 100 gms of CaSO4 there are 29.45 grams of Ca present and there is 25.6 gram of total CaSO4 sample present, So, to calculate the exact value of calcium in this given sample is:

mass of Ca = total amount of sample*percentage of calcium in sample /100

M of Ca =25.6*29.45/100

M of Ca = 7.5392 grams

Thus, the correct procedure is given by 29.45 / 100 x 25.6 = 7.5392 grams
