Question

Amount of energy produced by burning 1g of a fuel
__________​

Answer 1

Answer:

Energy content is the amount of heat produced by the burning of 1 gram of a substance, and is measured in joules per gram (J/g). where H = heat energy absorbed (in J), ∆t = change in temperature (in °C), m = mass (in g), and Cp = specific heat capacity (4.18 J/g°C for water).

Answer 2

Answer:

Calorific value is the quantity of heat produced by the complete combustion of a given mass of a fuel, usually expressed in joules per kilogram. It can be defined as the amount of heat energy produced on complete combustion of 1 Kg of fuel.
