kilojoule/kilogram to calorie (IT)/gram
Please provide values below to convert kilojoule/kilogram [kJ/kg] to calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g], or change ↔.
kilojoule/kilogram [kJ/kg]
Definition: Equal to 1,000 J/kg, commonly used in food energy and material properties.
Historyandorigin: A larger SI unit for easier calculations in thermodynamics.
CurrentUse: Used in food science (nutrition), engines, and thermal properties.
funfact: Fat contains about 37 kJ/g, making it the most energy-dense macronutrient!
calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g]
Definition: The amount of heat needed to raise 1 gram of water by 1°C.
Historyandorigin: Derived from historical thermodynamic experiments.
CurrentUse: Used in food energy and chemistry.
funfact: 1 cal/g ≈ 4.186 kJ/kg—calories in food are actually kilocalories (kcal)!

How to Convert kilojoule/kilogram to calorie (IT)/gram
1 kilojoule/kilogram [kJ/kg] = 0.2388458966 calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g]
1 calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g] = 4.1868 kilojoule/kilogram [kJ/kg]
we use cross multiplication method
kilojoule/kilogram [kJ/kg] → calorie (IT)/gram [cal/g]
1 → 0.2388458966
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.2388458966=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.3582688449
