Fat: 1 gram = 9 calories
Protein: 1 gram = 4 calories
Carbohydrates: 1 gram = 4 calories

that means that in one gram of fat, there are 9 calories. so 20 grams of fat would have 180 calories. of these 3, fats are the most calorie rich, have more than 2 times the amount of calories per gram than proteins or carbohydrates.

Carbs contain 4 calories per gram. Protein contains 4 calories per gram. Fats contain 9 calories per gram. Therefore, if you consume 25 grams of carbohydrates, 10 grams of fat and 30 grams of protein, that equals 100 + 90 + 120 = 310 total calories for that meal.

Is this what you are looking for?

carbohydrate 4 calories per gram
protein 4 calories per gram
fat 9 calories per gram

alcohol 7 calories per gram

(Note these are food calories, which are in reality kilocalories, as a calorie is the amount of energy required to heat 1 cc of water 1 degree Celsius.)

An example of a carbohydrate is syrup. An example of a fat is butter. An example of a protein is chicken. See how much one ounce of each has calorie wise- you can find that at dietfacts.com
