The “Chemistry in Focus” segment Burning Calories discusses calories in food. If a food is said to contain 350 calories per serving, determine this value in terms of joules.
Interpretation:
Convert the provided energy in calories into joules.
Concept Introduction:
An arithmetical multiplier which is used for converting a quantity expressed in one unit into another equivalent set of units is said to be conversion factor.
The relationship between calories and joules is 1 cal = 4.184 J. Convert 350 calories into joules by use the conversion factor
