When to convert electronvolt to calorie (small)
Energy conversion — common questions
Is a food calorie the same as a calorie?
No — a food 'Calorie' (capital C) actually means 1 kilocalorie = 1,000 small calories = 4,184 J. Nutrition labels typically write 'cal' meaning kcal.
How many joules in 1 kWh?
1 kWh = 3,600,000 J (3.6 MJ). Because 1 kW × 1 hour = 1,000 W × 3,600 s = 3,600,000 J.
What is a BTU?
British Thermal Unit — the energy required to raise 1 pound of water by 1 °F. 1 BTU ≈ 1,055 J.
