energyCalculate caloric values for foodConvert temperatures between all three scalesCalculate heat gained using a specific heatDescribe the characteristics for all three states of matterDescribe the changes in state between each phase and the energy involvedEnergyWork = an activity that requires energyEnergy = the ability to do workAll energy can be described as either potential energy or kinetic energyPotential Energy = stored energy Kinetic Energy = energy of motionEnergyConverting between the two forms of energy occurs all of the time.Ex) Hooking up a battery to a portable music player – the batteries PE is converted into KE.Ex) Riding a bicycle up a hill – your KE is being converted into PE.HeatHeat is the energy associated with the motion of particles in a substance.Temperature is the measurement for heat and is proportional to the motions of the molecules in the object.Thus, a cold object has slower moving molecules and a warm object has faster moving molecules.Units of EnergySI unit of energy is called the Joule (J).A Joule is a relatively small unit, so more commonly will see kilojoules (kJ).Sitting in your chair your body is consuming approximately 7 kJ per minute.Units of EnergyOlder unit of energy is the calorie (cal).A calorie is defined as the amount of energy required to raise 1 gram of water by 1oC.A calorie is also a small unit, so more commonly will see kilocalories (kcal).Conversion between the two units:1 cal = 4.184 J (exact)Energy and NutritionA Nutritional Calorie (note the uppercase “C”) is actually a kilocalorie.Thus, 150 Calories is really 150 kcal.The Caloric content of food is determined by the use of a device called a calorimeter.The food is combusted in the “bomb” and the heat released is absorbed by the water.Energy and NutritionCaloric ValuesThe caloric values of food are divided into the three types of food: carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.Carbohydrate = 4 kcal/gProtein = 4 kcal/gFat = 9 kcal/gIt should be noted that these are all average values as there are many different types of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.Caloric ValuesThese values can be used to calculate the total Calories in any food item.Caloric ValuesFrom the label, the muffin contains 12g of fat, 31g of carbohydrate, and 5g of protein.12g x (9 kcal/g) = 108 kcal31g x (4 kcal/g) = 124 kcal5g x (4 kcal/g) = 20 kcalTotal = 252 kcal (amounts usually rounded to 2 sig. figs.)Uniform LabelingIn 1990, the NLEA was passed to require that food labels contain certain information.% Daily Value – reflects percents based on a 2,000 Calorie diet.Good resource for finding caloric contents of foods including fast foods can be found at: http://www.nutritiondata.com/True or False?Many “claims” by manufacturers are also regulated.Fat-free means that a product contains zero grams of fat.Light – the food must contain either half the fat, one-third the calories, or half the salt of the regular version.Serving sizes are at the discretion of the manufacturer. All carbohydrate sources should be treated the same way with respect to Calories.Expending EnergyWhether at sleep or being very active, our bodies are expending energy.Energy is needed for:Chemical reactions in the bodyMaintaining body temperatureMuscle contractionNerve impulsesAnd many more thingsExpending EnergyAverages for males and females varyFemale approximately 2200 kcal/dayMale approximately 3000 kcal/dayMetabolism CalculatorEnergy expended varies as wellSleeping = about 60 kcal/hrSitting = about 100 kcal/hrWalking = about 200 kcal/hrSwimming = about 500 kcal/hrRunning = about 750 kcal/hrWeight Gain and LossCaloric Balance = Calories consumed minus the Calories expendedWeight Gain occurs when former exceeds the latter.To lose weight requires that the latter exceed the former.To lose one pound of fat (454g) requires that you burn approximately 3500 Calories per week more than you consume.Example ProblemA particular person’s diet consists of 80g of protein, 350g of carbohydrate, and 100g of fat per day.Total Calories = 80g x (4 kcal/g) + 350g x (4 kcal/g) + 100g x (9 kcal/g) = 2620 kcalThis person sleeps 8 hours, walks 1 hour and sits 15 hours in one day.Energy expended = 8 hr x (60 kcal/hr) + 1 hr x (200 kcal/hr) + 15 hr x (100 kcal/hr) = 2180 kcalExample ProblemThe caloric balance = 2620 kcal – 2180 kcal = +440 kcalThis person would potentially gain one pound of fat for every eight days at this rate.Assignment: Calculate total calories for an all fast food diet.ExampleLunch at Arby’sBeef & CheddarCurly FriesSprite, 16 ozCalories (on label) / Fat / Carbs / Protein440Cal / 21g / 44g / 22g336Cal / 18g / 39g / 4g197Cal / 0g / 50g / 0gCalculated vs. LabelCalculated calories will not always agree with actual calories on label due to rounding issues. To find % of fat, carbohydrate, and protein – use calculated calories from gram amounts.Arby’s MealTotal Fats = 21g + 18g + 0g = 39g39g x 9 Cal /g = 351 CalTotal Carbs = 44g + 39g + 50g = 133g133g x 4 Cal/g = 532 CalTotal Protein = 22g + 4g + 0g = 26g26g x 4 Cal/g = 104 CalTotal (Calculated) Calories =351 Cal + 532 Cal + 104 Cal = 987 Cal(Actual total = 973 Cal)Percentages35.6% 100 Cal 987Cal 351 Fat % 53.9% 100 Cal 987Cal 532 Carbs % 10.5% 100 Cal 987Cal

scales: Fahrenheit, Celsius, or Kelvin.Temperature ScalesThe Fahrenheit scale is used commonly in the USA. The Celsius scale
