Calculate the food energy (joules/g) of one of your food
samples. one chemistry calorie is equal to 4.186 joules. convert the energy you
calculated to kilojoules (1 kj = 1000 j). since nothing is given, an example is
avocadoes have 160 cal/100 g serving
(160 cal/ 100 g)(4.186 J/ 1 cal) (1 kJ/1000 J) = 0.0067 kJ/g
The density of a pure gold is 19.32g/cm3
if the volume is 4.30 cm3 then we can calculate the mass using the formula mass=density x volume
mass=19.32*4.30
mass=83.076g
The standard International System of Units (SI) unit of mass is the kilogram(kg). The kilogram is 1000 grams (g), first defined in 1795 as one cubic decimeter of water at the melting point of ice.
