Convert Calorie (small calorie) to Kilojoule
Unit definitions
Calorie (small calorie)
The small calorie is the thermal energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. It is equal to $4.184 \ \text{J}$.
Kilojoule
$10^{3} \ \text{J}$ is a kilojoule.
How to convert Calorie (small calorie) to Kilojoule
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = \text{Energy}_{\text{cal}} \cdot 0.004184$$
Examples
Example 1
Convert $25.0\ \text{cal}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 25.0 \cdot 0.004184$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 0.1046$$
$$\therefore \ 25.0\ \text{cal} = 0.1046 \ \text{kJ}$$
Example 2
Convert $60.0\ \text{cal}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 60.0 \cdot 0.004184$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 0.25104$$
$$\therefore \ 60.0\ \text{cal} = 0.25104 \ \text{kJ}$$
Example 3
Convert $120.0\ \text{cal}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 120.0 \cdot 0.004184$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 0.50208$$
$$\therefore \ 120.0\ \text{cal} = 0.50208 \ \text{kJ}$$
Example 4
Convert $140.0\ \text{cal}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 140.0 \cdot 0.004184$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 0.58576$$
$$\therefore \ 140.0\ \text{cal} = 0.58576 \ \text{kJ}$$
Example 5
Convert $195.0\ \text{cal}$ to $\text{kJ}$.
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 195.0 \cdot 0.004184$$
$$\text{Energy}_{\text{kJ}} = 0.81588$$
$$\therefore \ 195.0\ \text{cal} = 0.81588 \ \text{kJ}$$
