Answer:

  • 32.823 kJ
  • 190.4 kJ
  • 260.00 kJ
  • 180.012 kJ

Step-by-step explanation:

The conversion factor for food energy or thermochemical calorimetry* is ...

  1 calorie = 4.184 J

  1000 calorie = 4.184 kJ

__

a. 7845 cal = 7845·4.184 J = 32,823 J = 32.823 kJ

b. 4.55·10^4 cal = 4.55·10^4·4.184 J = 1.904·10^5 J = 190.4 kJ

c. 62.142 kcal = 62.142·4.184 kJ = 260.00 kJ

d. 43,024 cal = 43,024·4.184 J = 180,012 J = 180.012 kJ

_____

* The thermochemical calorie is defined in terms of the heat capacity of water. An international calorie of 4.1868 J is defined in terms of energy, without respect to the heat capacity of water.
