Small & enormous calories

Small calorie (cal) is the power predicted to increment 1 gram of water via using 1°C at a strain of one atmosphere.

Large calorie (Cal) is the strength predicted to increment 1 kg of water by using 1°C at a strain of 1 surroundings.

Large calorie is likewise called meals calorie and is applied as a unit of meals strength.

How to change from calories over absolutely to joules

Thermochemical energy to joules

1 cal_th = 4.184 J

The power in joules E_(J) is same to four.184 instances the energy in thermochemical electricity E_(calth):

E_(J) = 4.184 &instances; E_(calth)

Example

Convert three hundred cal_th to joules.

E_(J) = four.184 &instances; 300cal_th = 1255.2 J

15°C calories to joules

1 cal₁₅ = four.1855 J

The energy in joules E_(J) is equal to 4.1855 times the electricity in 15°C power E_(cal15):

E_(J) = four.1855 &instances; E_(cal15)

Example

Convert 300 cal₁₅ to joules.

E_(J) = four.1855 &instances; 300cal₁₅ = 1255.Sixty five J

Large/food energy to joules

1 Cal = four.184 kJ = 4184 J

The electricity in joules E_(J) is same to multiple times the power in large/food power E_(Cal):

E_(J) = 4184 × E_(Cal)

Example

Convert zero.3 Cal to joules.

E_(J) = 4184 &instances; 0.Three Cal = 1255.2 J
