When it is metabolized in the body, it combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and 3.022 x 104 KJ of heat per mole of fat, a typical fat in the body is glycerol trifoliate (C57H104O6).
1. Write down a balanced thermo chemical equation for the metabolism of fat.
2. Determine the numbers of grams of fat would to be burned to heat one liter of water (d = 1.00 g/mL) from 25.00 oC to 30.00oC? The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/goC.
