This is actually one of the most commonly misunderstood terms.
First off, there are 1000 bytes (B) in a kilobyte (kB). kilobytes, megabytes, etc. are measured in base 10.
Then, there are 8 bits in a byte. So altogether, there are 8000 bits or 8 kilobits (kbit) in a kilobyte.
The base 2 notation is known as a kilobinary byte or kibibyte (KiB) and is equal to 1024 bytes. The numbers are close but the terms are often misused.
There is an article from NIST on the correct notations attached to this answer.

How many bits make a kilobyte?
8192 bits makes one kilobyte, in the traditional (computer based) sense where kilo means 1024. Some people use kilo as 1000, even though that is not traditional computer usage, so, in that case, that would be 8000 bits.
How many bits per baud can you send if the signal constellation has one point?

What word is a 64-bit processor?
A 64bit Processor is a specific type of processing chip. In general, a processor is a micro-chip designed solely to do calculation, to be the brains of a computing system. More specifically, the "64bit" refers to the size of the data inputs, or in other words the size of each piece of information being sent to the processor as 1 step. In this case, each instruction being sent to the processor would be 64 bits, or 0's and 1's, long.
How many bits can be stored by a single flip flop?
one bit in two output states true or false
Design and draw a combinational circuit using AND-OR-NOT gates that accepts 4 input bits and produces two bit output the first of the two bits is set to 1 if the number of 1s in the input is even?
Design and draw a combinational circuit using AND-OR-NOT gates that accepts 4 input bits, and produces two bit output; the first of the two bits is set to 1 if the number of 1's in the input is even; and the second of the output bit is set to 1 if the input have 3 or more (all four) 1 bits.
How much bits in a kilobyte?
There are 8192 bits in a kilobyte.
1kilo byte how many bits?
There are 1,024 bytes in a kilobyte. There are 8 bits in a byte, so there are 8,192 bites in a kilobyte.
How many bits does a 64 K-bit?
640 Kilobyte is equal to 5243000 bits (1 KB = 8192 bits)
How many bits make a kilobyte?
8192 bits makes one kilobyte, in the traditional (computer based) sense where kilo means 1024. Some people use kilo as 1000, even though that is not traditional computer usage, so, in that case, that would be 8000 bits.
How Many Bits Are There In 1 MB?
There are 8388608 bits in 1MB, as there are 8bits in a Byte and 1024Bytes in a kilobyte and then there are 1024 kilobytes in a megabyte.There are 8388608 bits in 1 megabyte.
How many bits in 2kilobytes?
1 byte = 8 bits, 1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes. 2 kilobytes = 2048 * 8.
How many bits equals 2 Kb?
1 byte = 8 bits 1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes = 8192 bits 2 kilobytes = 2048 bytes = 16384 bits
How many bits are in flabbergasted?
A "flabbergasted" is not a measurement of computer memory. 8 bits are in a byte, 1000 bytes are in a kilobyte, 1000 kilobytes are in a megabyte, Etc.
What is bigger than a bit but smaller than a kilobyte?
A byte... composed of 8 bits. Then a kilobyte is composed of 1,024 (approximately) bytes.
What does 1 kilobite equal?
1 kilobyte = 1,024 bytes = 8,192 bits
What is 1064 bytes commonly known as?
1024 bytes is a kibibyte (KiB).1000 bytes is a kilobyte (kB).
