| KillGorack | 2023-07-08 17:58:21 | The food Calorie (capital C), which is often used in nutritional contexts, is equivalent to a kilocalorie (kcal) in scientific terms, and this is equal to 4,186 Joules. So, the correct answer is: 4,186 J It's important to note that the scientific calorie (lowercase c), which is rarely used, is equal to 4.184 Joules, and this is not the same as the food Calorie. The use of the term "Calorie" in nutrition is somewhat confusing because it technically refers to kilocalories. But it's a widely accepted convention. |
