Quoting: "From Langmuir's experiments and findings we know that the minimum calorific value for the recombination of atoms was agreed to be in the region 90.000 cal/gram molecule. In other words we have an input energy of 103 cal/gram molecule and an output energy of 90.000 cal/gram molecule." So, if I understand you correctly, you are saying one of these numbers is in nutritional Calories and the other in thermal calories? If so, this process is not ou (or the numbers are off). I'll try reading Langmuir's original May 4, 1912 article and see if I can figure which is true. http://pubs.acs.org/ncw/2003/articles/ja02208a003.pdf
