ANSWER:

Solution 41QPStep 1 of 6:The goal of the problem is to determine the energy for given criteria. Given: The caloric content of food type is shown in the table below:Food TypekJ/gkcal/gCarbohydrate174Fat389Protein174The total energy of a food, when the mass of each food type is known can be calculated as below: and ________________a. Given:Mass of carbohydrate = 26 g.Mass of fat = 0 gMass of protein = 2 g Energy in kilojoules =Let’s find the energy of carbohydrate:The caloric content of carbohydrate (in kJ) = 17 kJ/g. = 26 g = 442 kJ. Mass of Fat is 0 g, so it is not calculated.Let’s find the energy of protein:The caloric content of protein (in kJ) = 17 kJ/g. = 2 g = 34 kJ. ________________
