calorie (IT)/gram/°C to joule/kilogram/K
Please provide values below to convert calorie (IT)/gram/°C to joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)], or change ↔.
calorie (IT)/gram/°C
Definition: The specific heat in terms of the International Table (IT) calorie, per gram per degree Celsius.
Historyandorigin: Developed in the late 19th century for thermochemical analysis and energy calculations.
CurrentUse: Once common in food science and thermodynamics, now mostly replaced by Joules.
funfact: The calorie was historically the go-to unit for heat energy before the international adoption of the SI system!
joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)]
Definition: The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of a substance by 1 Kelvin.
Historyandorigin: The SI unit of specific heat, derived from Joules, named after James Prescott Joule.
CurrentUse: Used in thermodynamics and material science to measure thermal energy storage in materials.
funfact: Water has a high specific heat capacity (4.18 J/g*K), which is why it takes a long time to boil!

How to Convert calorie (IT)/gram/°C to joule/kilogram/K
1 calorie (IT)/gram/°C = 4186.8 joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)]
1 joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)] = 0.0002388459 calorie (IT)/gram/°C
we use cross multiplication method
calorie (IT)/gram/°C → joule/kilogram/K [J/(kg*K)]
1 → 4186.8
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*4186.8=1*x
by simplifying
x=6280.2
