I wonder if there is someone out there that could tell me how many calories it would take to heat an 8 oz. glass of water from 35 degree f. to 98.6 degrees f.
Barry's Response Let's see, I work in metric. The temperature difference is 63.6 F which is 35.7 C, 8 oz is 240 ml. Multiply the two and that is 8568 calories, which is also 8.568 Calories (with a capital C, the kind used by dieters).
