The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends us to limit "free sugar" intake to no more
than 5 % of the total daily Calories consumed. Sugars like sucrose are considered "free
sugars" and provide about 4 Calories per gram. If an individual consumes 2000 Calories in a
day, what is the maximum amount of sugar they are advised to take in? How does this amount
compare to the added sugars found in popular soft drinks?
Boron is concentrated mainly in the lungs (0.34 mg), thyroid gland (0.30 mg), spleen (0.26mg), brain (0.22 mg), heart muscle (0.21 mg). Estimate the percentage of boron in the body of an adult.
For calculations, take a body weight of 70 kg.

This price has been marked up 6% from the wholesale price that they pay to the manufacturer. You decide to use your knowledge of chemistry to produce your own ammonium phosphate and sell it to Home Depot at 5¢ below the wholesale price. You contact a packager, who agrees to package your product for 29¢ per bag. Ammonium phosphate is produced from ammonia (NH3) and phosphoric acid (H,PO4). Ammonia, in turn, can be produced at a 50% yield via the Haber process, using a mixture of hydrogen (H2) and nitrogen (N2) gases with an iron catalyst. Phosphoric acid is obtained from a naturally occurring mineral called fluorapatite, Cas(PO4)3F, by the following process: fluoroapatite is mixed with silica sand (SiO2) and coke (elemental carbon, C) in an electric furnace. The products are carbon monoxide (CO), tetrafluorosilane…arrow_forward
