05/14/2013 7.1 Lab Report- Caloric Content of Food TITLE: LAB 7.1 CALORIC CONTENT OF FOOD PURPOSE: In this lab we will have the opportunity to measure the energy in a variety of foods‚ by heating/burning a portion of the food item and catching the heat released into a known mass of water in a calorimeter. We will also identify units of measuring heat such as calories and joules. We will use basic lab equipment provided in our labpaq and we will use several household items as well. We

Keith Shearer Lab Group 3 January 19‚ 2015 Objective Is to measure various food items and become familiar with different energy units like calories and joules. Also‚ we will be using simple household products and follow the standard safety procedures of this lab. Materials Procedure First‚ use a digital scale to determine the empty weight of the 100ml beaker. The‚ you are going to fill the beaker half way with water (approximately 50ml) and weigh it again. Take the water and beaker weight

Experiment Date: 11/22/2014 Date Submitted: 11/25/2014 TITLE: Caloric Content of Food PURPOSE: To measure the energy content of various food items‚ as well as become familiar with energy units like calories and joules. PROCEDURE: First‚ weigh your empty beaker‚ fork‚ beaker with half water‚ mass of marshmallow walnut popcorn‚ and the test tube holder. Then record the temp of the water in the breaker. The next thing you do is light the marshmallow on the fork and hold under the beaker making sure

Caloric Content of Food Introduction: I will test different foods to figure out how much energy they contain. Materials and Methods: I filled a beaker half full and put the food I was testing under it and lit it up; after recording the water temperature. Then I recorded the mass of the ashes and I recorded the temperature one last time. I repeated the process for the other test foods as well. Results: See table below Discussion: This lab helped me learn how to measure the amount of

Whitney Miller Chemistry 111-D01L 3/31/2013 Calorie Content of Food Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to measure the energy content of three different food items using the change in water temperatures from the heat of the food. Procedure: 1. With your digital scale determine the empty weight of your 100-mL beaker. 2. Half-fill the beaker with water (approximately 50 ml) and weigh it again. 3. The beaker and water weight minus the empty beaker weight is the net weight of water

requires “burning” food for energy. How much energy is released when food burns in the body? How is the calorie content of food determined? Let’s investigate the calorie content of different snack foods‚ such as popcorn‚ peanuts‚ marshmallows‚ and cheese puffs. Concepts • Combustion reaction • Calorimetry • Nutritional Calorie • Calorie content of foods Background What does it mean to say that we burn food in our bodies? The digestion and metabolism of food converts the chemical
