What is calorie (thermochemical)?

The thermochemical calorie is a unit of energy equal to approximately 4.184 joules. It is used in chemistry and physics to express small heat quantities, particularly in thermochemical experiments.

What is megajoule?

A megajoule is a unit of energy equal to one million joules. It is used in industrial energy calculations, explosive yield estimations, and large-scale thermodynamic systems.

Worked examples

1 calorie (thermochemical) = 0.00000418 megajoule
