A Starbucks Venti Caramel Macchiato contains about 42.0 grams of sugar. If we assume all the sugar is in the form of sucrose, use your answer from Question 4 to determine how many nutritional calories are produced in burning this quantity of sugar. Give your answer as a positive number to three significant figures. Use the following conversions: 1 nutritional calorie = 1 kcal; 1 cal = 4.184 J. Note that a total nutritional calorie count should also include the calories from burning fat and protein, which we are not counting here.
