A person requires 2870 kcal of energy, to lead a normal daily life. If the heat of combustion of cane sugar is `-1349` kcal, then his daily consumption of sugar is:

A

728

B

0.728 g

C

342g

D

0.342g

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
1349 kcal is obtained from
`to 1mol(342g)`
sugar ,br> Thus 2870 kcal will be obtained from
`to(342xx2870)/1349`
`=727.61g`

Heat of reaction is the change in enthalpy or internal energy as represented by a balanced thermochemical equation . The amount of energy released during a chemical change depends upon the state of reactants and products, the conditions of pressure and volume at which reaction is carried out, and temperature. The variation of heat of reaction (DeltaH_(1) or DeltaE) with temperature is given as DeltaH_(2)-DeltaH_(1)=DeltaC_(P)[T_(2)-T_(1)] or DeltaE_(2)-DeltaE_(1)=DeltaC_(v)(T_(2)-T_(1). Standard heat enthalpy of elements in their most stable state is assumed to be zero whereas standard heat enthalpy of compound is referred as heat of formation of that compound at 1 atm pressure and 25^(@)C . Oxidation of N_(2) to N_(2)O,NO,NO_(2) shows absorption of energy whereas heat of combustion of N_(2) is exothermic like other heat of combustion. Heat of combustion of carbon in diamond and amorphous form ar -94.3 and -97.6 kcal//mol . The heat required to convert 6g carbon from diamond to amorphous form is :
