Explanation:

(a)

The given data is:-

Energy = 2391 Calories

The conversion of calories to J is shown below as:-

1 calorie = 4.184 J

So,

Energy = 4.184 * 2391 J = 10003.944 J

Answer in four significant digits: - [tex]1.000\times 10^4\ J[/tex]

(b)

The conversion of calories to kJ is shown below as:-

1 calorie = 0.004184 kJ

So,

Energy = 0.004184 * 2391 kJ = 10.003944 kJ

Answer in four significant digits: - [tex]1.000\times 10\ kJ[/tex]

(c)

The conversion of calories to kWh is shown below as:-

1 calorie = [tex]1.1622\times 10^{-6}[/tex] kWh

So,

Energy = [tex]1.1622\times 10^{-6}\times 2391[/tex] kWh = 0.002778873 kWh

Answer in four significant digits: - [tex]0.002779\ kWh[/tex]
