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>

What is the reduction half equation of Fe(s)+ 2 HC2H3O2(aq) → Fe(C2H3O2)2(aq) + H2(g)
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

2 H⁺ + 2e = H₂    ( reduction )

Explanation:

Fe( s ) + 2 CH₃COOH = Fe ( OOCCH₃ ) ₂ + H₂

Fe( s ) = Fe⁺² + 2e     ( oxidation )

2 H⁺ + 2e = H₂    ( reduction )
