Calorimetry - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Energy sources - Carbs and protein= 4 cal/gram; fat= 9 cal/gram; the brain uses glucose for energy, uses ketone bodies during starvation Tissue storage of glucose - Muscles and liver= store glycogen; adipose tissue= fat; cellular mass= protein stores Gluconeogenesis= conversion of non-carb sources into glucose by glycerol and amino acids Homeostasis - Keeps the internal environment/temp of the body at a state of equilibrium Cellular oxidation - Enzymes= proteins, organic catalysts tha...

Define Calorimetry Correct Answer-Determining the changes in energy of a system by measuring the heat exchanged with the surroundings Know how to calculate amount of energy released using E=mc(delta)T Correct Answer-E=energy, m=mass, c=specific heat, (delta T)=change in temp What is meant by a small calorie "c" and a food calorie "C"? Correct Answer-c=1 calorie=4.184 J, C=1000 little calories=4184 J When walking, an average person burns .453 C/(mile*pounds). How many C does a 150-po...

BIOD 121 (Portage): Module 3 Latest Version Graded A+ Energy balance a state when one's energy intake is equivalent to the amount of energy expended Energy in equals energy out (calories consumed is burned through basic body functions + exercise energy balance positive energy balance occurs if more calories (energy) are consumed than expended examples of periods in life when you need to be in a positive energy balance state: pregnancy, childhood, and adolescence in growth spur...

Know your significant figure rules Correct Answer-ALL zeroes between non-zero numbers are ALWAYS significant. ALL zeroes which are SIMULTANEOUSLY to the right of the decimal point AND at the end of the number are ALWAYS significant. ALL zeroes which are to the left of a written decimal point and are in a number >= 10 are ALWAYS significant. define calorimetry Correct Answer-the act of measuring heat required or evolved during a chemical process know how to calculate the amount of ener...
