The energy used in burning gas in a car will be the same as the energy used in a stove assuming the smae mass used. In the car, the energy is transformed to heat and work while as in a stove its only converted to heat. Since the same mass is used and assuming equal losses, it would be safe to say that the heat has a higher value in the stove since the energy from the gas in the car is divided into work and heat.<a href="http://www.englishoverseas.com/teach-english/teach-english-abroad.htm"> jamesyoy02</a> This is due to the first law of thermodynamics which is the law of conservation of energy.
