Common pitfalls and look-alike units
The "Calorie" on food labels and in fitness is the kilocalorie (kcal): 1 kcal = 4184 J, and the small calorie (cal) is one thousandth of it. This page uses the thermochemical calorie (1 cal = 4.184 J); the International Steam Table calorie is about 4.1868 J, so values differ slightly. The "degree" (度) on a Chinese electricity bill is one kilowatt-hour, and 1 kWh = 3600 kJ.
Frequently asked questions
How many calories (thermochemical) are in a kilocalorie (thermochemical)?
1 kilocalorie (thermochemical) (kcal) equals 1000 calorie (thermochemical) (cal).
How do I convert kilocalories (thermochemical) to calories (thermochemical)?
Multiply the kilocalorie (thermochemical) value by 1000 to get calorie (thermochemical) — for example, 2 kilocalories (thermochemical) = 2000 calorie (thermochemical).
How do I convert calories (thermochemical) back to kilocalories (thermochemical)?
1 calorie (thermochemical) equals 0.001 kilocalorie (thermochemical). Use the swap button or the reverse conversion page linked on this page.
