    A calorie is the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius from a standard initial temperature. In one table or corn oil there are 120 calories, as in honey there are only 60. Corn oil has more calories than honey because oil is a lipid unlike honey, which was indicated in the brown bag test for lipids. Gram for gram, lipids yield 6 times more energy than carbohydrates, so oil (lipid) will have more calories than honey (carbohydrate).
