Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1 degree Celsius is known as a kilocalorie (kcal). This is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius. Option A (kilojoules) is also a unit of energy, but it is not commonly used in this context. Options B (molecule) and C (atomic nuclei) are not units of energy, and option D (thermodynamic) is a term related to the study of energy and work, but it is not a unit of energy. Therefore, the correct answer is option E (kilocalorie).
