Food contains three main categories of compounds: carbohydrate, protein, and fat. Arctic explorers often eat a high-fat diet because fats have a high food value. The average food values for carbohydrate, protein, and fat are 4 Cal/g, 4 Cal/g, and 9 Cal/g, respectively. Consider a typical fat to have the chemical formula C18H36O2, glucose (C6H12O6) to be a representative carbohydrate, and the amino acid alanine (C3H6NO2) a building block of proteins. Express the food values given above in kJ/mol.
