How to convert calorie (kcal) to kilocalorie (kcal).
A small calorie (calorie) is the energy required to raise 1 gram of water by 1°C at a pressure of 1 atmosphere.
A large calorie (Cal) is the energy required to raise 1 kg of water by 1°C at 1 atmosphere of pressure.
Large calorie is also called food calorie and is used as a unit of food energy.
2 kcal = 2000 calories
The energy in small kilocalories (kcal) divided by 1000 equals the energy in small calories (kcal):
E(kcal) = E(cal) / 1000
Example 1
Convert 5000cal to smaller kcal:
E(kcal) = 5000cal / 1000 = 5 kcal
Example 2
Convert 7000cal to smaller kcal:
E(kcal) = 7000cal / 1000 = 7 kcal
Example 3
Convert 16000cal to smaller kcal:
E(kcal) = 16000cal / 1000 = 16 kcal
Example 4
Convert 25000cal to smaller kcal:
E(kcal) = 25000cal / 1000 = 25 kcal
2 Kcal = 2 Calorie
Energy in small kilocalories (kcal) is equivalent to energy in large calories (cal):
E(kcal) = E(Cal)
Example 1
Convert 5Cal to kcal:
E(kcal) = 5Cal = 5kcal
Example 2
Convert 10Cal to kcal:
E(kcal) = 10Cal = 10kcal
Example 3
Convert 15Cal to kcal:
E(kcal) = 15Cal = 15kcal
