Question

5. Cheese is a good source of protein, calcium and Whole Milk phosphorus according to most nutritionists but along with the good comes the bad. Cheese is often very high TOTAL FAT in saturated fat. Use the information in this table to calculate the % protein, % fat, % carbs and % water in the one cup of the whole milk used to make cheese. Record your answer below.. Saturated fats TOTAL CARBS- all sugars TOTAL PROTEIN CALORIES/CUP DENSITY (g/cup) 12 For example, if the nutritional labeled said that there 150 are 5 grams of protein in one cup of milk and one cup of milk has a mass of 244, then the milk is 244 [(5 g/cup) * 1/(244 g milk) * 1 cup * 100 2.05% protein Table 1. The grams of carbs, protein and fat from the nutritional label for one cup of whole milk used to make cheese. _ Assume that water forms the rest of the milk by subtracting the grams of protein, fat and carbs from 244 grams to find the grams of water. 2 pts

Explanation / Answer

1) Pecentage of Total Fats :

Mass of Total fats in milk = 8 g/cup

Mass of one cup of milk = 244 g

% Total fats = (Mass of Total fats in milk / Mass of one cup of milk ) * number of cups*100 = (8/244)*1*100 = 3.28%

Percentage Saturated Fats :

Mass of Saturated fats in milk = 5 g/cup

%Satutated fats = (Mass of Saturated fats in milk / Mass of one cup of milk ) * number of cups*100 = (5/244)*1*100 = 2.05%

2) Percentage Total Carbs :

Mass of Total Carbs in milk = 8 g/cup

% Total Carbs = (Mass of Total Carbs in milk / Mass of one cup of milk ) * number of cups*100 = (12/244)*1*100 = 4.92%

3) Perccentage of Total Protein

Mass of Total protein in milk = 8 g/cup

% Total protein = (Mass of Total protein in milk / Mass of one cup of milk ) * number of cups*100 = (8/244)*1*100 = 3.28%

4) Percentage of water :

Mass of components other than water = Mass of Protein + Mass of Total carbs + Mass of Total fats = 8+12+8 = 28g

Mass of water in milk = Mass of milk - Mass of components other than water = 244 - 28 = 216g

% Water = (Mass of water in milk / Mass of one cup of milk ) * number of cups*100 = (216/244)*1*100 = 88.52%
