What is 276 Kilocalories in Kilojoules?

276 Kilocalories = 1154.784 Kilojoules

How to convert 276 Kilocalories to Kilojoules

To convert 276 Kilocalories to Kilojoules you have to multiply 276 by 4.184, since 1 Kilocalorie is 4.184 Kilojoules. The result is the following:

276 kcal × 4.184 = 1154.784 kJ

276 kcal = 1154.784 kJ

We conclude that two hundred seventy-six Kilocalories is equivalent to one thousand one hundred fifty-four point seven eight four Kilojoules:

276 Kilocalories is equal to 1154.784 Kilojoules.

Therefore, if you want to calculate how many Kilojoules are in 276 Kilocalories you can do so by using the conversion formula above.

Definition of units

Let's see how both units in this conversion are defined, in this case Kilocalories and Kilojoules:

Kilocalorie (kcal)

Calories are units of energy. Various definitions exist but fall into two broad categories. The first, the small calorie, or gram calorie (symbol: cal), is defined as the approximate amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius at a pressure of one atmosphere. The second is the large calorie or kilogram calorie (symbol: Cal), also known as the food calorie and similar names, is defined in terms of the kilogram rather than the gram. It is equal to 1000 small calories or 1 kilocalorie (symbol: kcal). Although these units relate to the metric system, all of them have been considered obsolete in science since the adoption of the SI system. The unit of energy in the International System of Units is the joule. One small calorie is approximately 4.2 joules (so one large calorie is about 4.2 kilojoules). The factor used to convert calories to joules at a given temperature is numerically equivalent to the specific heat capacity of water expressed in joules per kelvin per gram or per kilogram. The precise conversion factor depends on the definition adopted.

Kilojoule (kJ)

The kilojoule (symbol: kJ) is equal to one thousand joules. Nutritional food labels in most countries express energy in kilojoules (kJ). One square metre of the Earth receives about 1.4 kilojoules of solar radiation every second in full daylight.
