One Calorie or one kilocalorie raise the the temperature of one kilo gram of water by one degree Celsius. Here the 'C' is capital. Your calorie raises the temperature of one milliliter of water by one degree Celsius. Here the 'c' is small.

A calorie is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius?
The statement is false due to it should be stated one Kilogram of water NOT one gram of water in order to be correct. Actually correct because it is calorie with a small c. The Calorie with a big "C" is kilocalorie which would raise the temperature of a kilogram of water.
Is it harder to raise the temperature of a rock than it is to raise the temperature of water?
It is harder to raise the temperature of water than it is to raise the temperature of a rock. It takes 1 calorie of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree C, whereas it only takes 0.02 calorie to heat a gram of rock to that temperature.
How do you define 1calorie?
The large calorie, kilogram calorie, dietary calorie or food calorie approximates the energy needed to increase the temperature of 1 kilogram of water by 1 °C.
What is to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Clntigrade?
Depends on how high you want to raise the gram of water ;).
The amount of heat necessary to raise one kilogram of water one degree Celsius is?
Heat required to raise the temperature of 1 Kg. of Pure water is called a Calorie or otherwise heat released on condensation of 1 Kg of pure water when it is condensed by 1 C is also a Calorie. Again if 1 pound pure water's temperature is raised by 1 F, the quantity of heat is 1 BTU (British Thermal Unit)
What amount of heat is required to raise the temperature of one gram of water one degree Celsius?
I believe it is a calorie.One Calorie.
What energy unit is defined as the heat required to raise on kilogram of water by one degree Celsius?
I believe it is Calorie.
What energy unit is defined as the heat required to raise one kilogram of water by one degrees celsius?
I believe it is Calorie.
What is the difference between calories and kilo calories?
One calorie (cal) is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water through 1 ° C (from 14.5-15.5 ° C). In real life, the kilocalorie (1000 calories) is used (the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a whole  kilogram of water through 1 ° C) because it's easier to conceptualize and use in practical applications.
How much water can be heated up by 1 degree with 1 calorie of energy?
The definition of a calorie is that, it's the energy needed to increase the temperature of 1 kilogram of water by 1 °C.
What is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree celsius?
The small calorie, symbol cal (note the lower case c) is the energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius at 1 atmosphere of pressure. The small calorie is a pre SI metric unit of energy. In SI terms it is equivalent to about 4.2 Joules of energy. The small calorie is also called the gram calorie. If the subject is physics, calorie refers to the gram calorie, the small calorie.The large Calorie (note the upper case C) is the energy required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of water by 1 degree Celsius at one atmosphere of pressure. When the subject is diet, such as food nutritional data, Calorie always means the large Calorie, the kilogram Calorie.The existence of these two different but related units with the same name is confusing and is an invitation to error. This is unfortunate, but the kilo Calorie is deeply embedded in nutritional literature, and the gram Calorie is embedded in early physics literature, so we are stuck with this situation.If you are doing physics, try to stay with SI units.1 joule is needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celcius.
Heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water one Celsius degree?
This is one calorie
