Although Joule is the unit of energy we normally use in science, people also use the Kilocalorie and the gram calorie when describing energy; especially where food energy is concerned. These are potentially confusing because 1 kilocalorie does not equal 1 gram calorie. Here's how it works:
• It takes 4.184 J to heat one gram of water 1 K
• It takes one gram calorie to heat one gram of water 1 K
• This means that 1 gram calorie = 4184
• 1 kilocaloric equals 1000 gram calories
• This means that 1 kilocalorie - 4184
The kilocalorie is also called the Dietary Calorie or Food Calorie. Convert your results to kilocalories per gram.
