energy content
Joules per gram
Energy content is the amount of usable energy stored in a substance, typically measured in calories or joules.
Food labels list energy content to indicate how much fuel the body can extract: The energy content of a banana is about 100 calories.
Fuels are compared by energy content per unit volume or mass—gasoline has higher energy content than ethanol.
