Two students are trying to figure out the Calories per gram of potato chips. They burn part of the potato chip and feel the heat. They decide to measure this heat by putting a can of water above the burning potato chip so they can measure the heat gained by the water. 1 Calorie is equal to 1,000 calories

4.184 J = 1 cal

Specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g °C

They collect the following data:

mass of potato chip before burning 0.58 g
mass of potato chip after burning 0.40 g
mass of water in can 50.9 g
initial temperature of water 21.7 °C
final temperature of water 23.8 °C

How many Cal were released by potato chip? Round your answer to 2 decimal places
