If the chemical formula for coal is C135H96O9NS, what is the mass % of N? Multiple choice question.
0.73 Reason: (14 g/mol / 1906 g/mol) x 100% = 0.73%
A slice of pizza supplies 217 kcal (217 Cal). If a person weighing 140 lb expends 80 kcal per mile when walking at 2.0 miles per hour, approximately how long will it take to use up the calories from the pizza? Multiple choice question
1 hour 20 minutes 217 kcal x 1mile80kcal1mile 80kcal x 1hr2miles 1hr2miles = 1.36 hr or 1 hour 20 minutes
A 1 oz piece of dark chocolate supplies 720. kJ of energy. Convert this to kcal (nutritional calories or Cal) given that 1 kJ = 0.239 kcal.
172cal
If the chemical formula for coal is C135H96O9NS, what is the %O? Multiple choice question.
7.6% Reason: To calculate the %O, you would consider the atomic mass of O (16 g/mol) and the overall molar mass of the compound (1906 g/mol): ((9 x 16)/1906) x 100% = 7.6%
