Kassidy Levine · Answer 1

The amount of energy that would be released is equal to 4182 Joules.

Explanation:

Total amount of coke = 2 kg = 2000 g

1 calorie per gram is equal to 4.184 Joules of energy

4.184 J/gC*2000g = 8368 J

1 food calorie is roughly equal to 4186 J

8368 - 4186

Therefore, the amount of energy that would be released is equal to 4182 Joules.
