Calorie per gram-degree Celsius to joule per kilogram-kelvin Conversion

1 calorie per gram-degree Celsius (cal/g⋅°C) is equal to 4184 joule per kilogram-kelvin (J/kg⋅K).

1 cal/g⋅°C = 4184 J/kg⋅K

1 J/kg⋅K = 0.0002390057361 cal/g⋅°C

Formula

To convert a specific heat capacity from calorie per gram-degree Celsius (cal/g⋅°C) to joule per kilogram-kelvin (J/kg⋅K), multiply the specific heat capacity in calorie per gram-degree Celsius by 4184

s_(J/kg⋅K) = s_{(cal/g⋅°C)} × 4184

Examples:

Convert 1 calorie per gram-degree Celsius to joule per kilogram-kelvin:

s_(J/kg⋅K) = 1cal/g⋅°C × 4184 = 4184 J/kg⋅K
