EXPERIMENT 6.2
Hypothesis : Cashews nuts have higher energy value than ground nuts. E1 PI 1-3
We assume that all the heat released from the food sample
has been transferred to the water. Since the specific heat
capacity of water = 4.2 J-1g oC-1.
= ____________J g -1 E4 PI 1
= ____________kJ g-1
= ___________J g -1
= ___________ kJ g -1
Discussion : The higher the rise in temperature of water, the more
E4 PI 2
the energy value content in the food sample.
The rise in temperature for cashew nut is ............ oC
E4 PI 2
which is higher than groundnut that is.............. oC.
Based on the calculation using given formula, the
energy value for cashew nut is .................. kJ g -1 and
the energy value of groundnut is ................... kJ g -1.
Therefore, the energy value for the cashew nut is
higher than the groundnut
