Kilocalories to Joules Definition

Kilocalorie (kcal) is a unit of energy, representing the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius. Joule (J) is a unit of energy, representing the amount of work done when a force of one newton displaces an object by one meter. The conversion from kilocalories to joules is straightforward: multiply the energy in kilocalories by 4184[^1^].

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ E = 5 \times 4184 \]

\[ E = 20920 \text{ J} \]

The Energy (J) is 20920 J.
