Module 9: Quantitative Analysis of Fat in Chips

The experiment in this module will show how the fat in potato chips can be extracted in order for us to quantify how much fat is in the chips, by mass. We will also observe from this lab how the amount of fat in chips is different from the % Daily Value we see on food labels.

Module 9 Objectives

1. Learners will calculate the percentage of fat and efficiency of extraction of two different types of potato chips. (CCO #8)

2. Learners will acquire accurate information from nutrition facts labels. (CCO #7)

3. Learners will use an electronic balance to gather data. (CCO #2)

4. Learners will extract the fat by separating it from the chips. (CCO #4)

5. Learners will discuss the health implications of fat consumption. (CCO #9)

6. Learners will record their data, observations, and results on the Data Collection and Results Pages. (CCO #11)
