A 0.422 g food sample is used to raise the temperature of 14.656 g of water by 45.2 celsius. How many food Calories (kilocalories) of energy does the food contain per gram?
A block of iron (c=448.00 J/kj°C) initially at temperature 6.00°C is dropped into an insulated container filled with 15.71kg of water ( cwater=4186.00 J/kg°C) at 93.00°C.

The number of kilocalories in food is determined by calorimetry techniques in which the food is burned and the amount of heat transfer is measured. How many kilocalories per gram are there in a 5.00-g peanut if the energy from burning it is transferred to 0.500 kg of water held in a 0.100-kg aluminum cup, causing a 54.9°C temperature increase?
An insulated Thermos contains 140 cm³ of hot coffee at 92.0°C. You put in a 18.0 g ice cube at its melting point to cool the coffee. By how many degrees has your coffee cooled once the ice has melted and equilibrium is reached? Treat the coffee as though it were pure water and neglect energy exchanges with the environment. The specific heat of water is 4186 J/kg-K. The latent heat of fusion is 333 kJ/kg. The density of water is 1.00 g/cm³. Number i Units
The "steam" above a freshly made cup of instant coffee is really water vapor droplets condensing after evaporating from the hot coffee. What is the final temperature of 205 g of hot coffee initially at 98.0°C if 3.18 g evaporates from it? The coffee is in a Styrofoam cup, and so other methods of heat transfer can be neglected. Assume that coffee has the same physical properties as water; its latent heat of vaporization is 539 kcal/kg and its specific heat is 1.00 kcal/(kg · °C).
