**What is a kilocalorie (kcal)?**- ○ Unlike 1 food calorie, this is the amount of energy needed to raise 1 kilogram of water by 1 degree Celsius.- ○ The amount of energy needed to raise 1 kilogram of water by 1 degree Celsius. It is equal to 1,000 food calories.- ○ The amount of energy needed to raise 1 kilogram of water by 1 degree Celsius. It is also the same thing as 1 food calorie.- ○ The amount of energy needed to raise 1 pound of water by 1 degree Celsius. It is also the same thing as 1 food calorie.

A rescarcher studying the nutritional value of a new candy places a 4.40 g sample of the candy inside a bomb calorimeter and combusts it in excess oxygen. The observed temperature increase is 2.30 "C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 45.00 kJ-K-, how many nutritional Calories are there per gram of the candy? Calories of candy: Cal/g per gram
We should all know that a calorie is the measure of energy required to raise 1 g of water by 1°C. We all know that energy off our food is measured in Calories and that to lose weight we just need to use more than we take in. So how come this isn't a good strategy for weight loss: drink cold water. For every degree you heat up each gram, you'll burn a calorie. If a pound of fat is 3500 Calories, just drink 3500 g of water (3.5 liters) and for every degree it gets warmer in the stomach, you lose a pound. ?
