on 15 of 16 Ⓒ Macmillan Learning Carbohydrates serve as a vital source of chemical energy to the human body. Carbohydrates are broken down into smaller units of glucose, among other sugars, providing energy to various muscles and organs, including the brain. On average, for every 10.0 g of carbohydrates consumed, the body will store 170 kJ of energy. Convert this energy value to kilocalories (kcal). 170 kJ = kcal

Use the References to access important values if needed for this question. When a solid dissolves in water, heat may be evolved or absorbed. The heat of dissolution (dissolving) can be determined using a coffee cup calorimeter. Thermometer Cardboard or In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when 14.72 g of BaBr2(s) are Styrofoam lid dissolved in 101.00 g of water, the temperature of the solution increases from 22.80 to 25.27 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.82 J/°C. Nested Styrofoam cups Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of dissolution of BaBr2(s) in kJ/mol. Reaction occurs in solution. Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific heat of water. AHdissolution = kJ/mol
