A piece of chocolate cake contains about 400 calories. A nutritional calorie is equal to 1000 calories (thermochemical calories), which is equal to 4.184 kJ. How many 8-in-high steps must a 180-lb man climb to expend the 400 Cal from the piece of cake? See Exercise 28 for the formula for potential energy.
9.85 The figure below shows a "self-cooling" beverage can. The can is equipped with an outer jacket containing sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), which dissolves in water rapidly and endothermically: Na2CO3(s)2Na+(aq)+CO32(aq) H= 67.7 kJ The user adds water to the outer jacket, and the heat absorbed in the chemical reaction chills the drink. The can contains 200 g of drink, the jacket contains 55 g of Na2CO3, and 100 g of water is to be added. If the initial temperatures of the can and the water are both 32°C on a summer day, what is the coldest temperature that the drink can reach? The can itself has a heat capacity of 40 J/C Assume that the Na2CO3 solution and the drink both have the same heat capacity as pure water, 4.184 J g-l C-l, (HINT: Treat this like a calorimetry problem.)
You drink 350 mL of diet soda that is at a temperature of 5 C. (a) How much energy will your body expend to raise the temperature of this liquid to body temperature (37 C)? Assume that the density and specific heat capacity of diet soda are the same as for water. (b) Compare the value in part (a) with the caloric content of the beverage. (The label says that it has a caloric content of 1 Calorie.) What is the net energy change in your body resulting from drinking this beverage? (1 Calorie = 1000 kcal = 4184 J.) (c) Carry out a comparison similar to that in part (b) for a nondiet beverage whose label indicates a caloric content of 240 Calories.
