Joule per gram-degree Celsius to calorie per gram-degree Celsius Conversion
1 joule per gram-degree Celsius (J/g⋅°C) is equal to 0.2390057361 calorie per gram-degree Celsius (cal/g⋅°C).
1 J/g⋅°C = 0.2390057361 cal/g⋅°C
or
1 cal/g⋅°C = 4.184 J/g⋅°C
Formula
To convert a specific heat capacity from joule per gram-degree Celsius (J/g⋅°C) to calorie per gram-degree Celsius (cal/g⋅°C), divide the specific heat capacity in joule per gram-degree Celsius by 4.184
s(cal/g⋅°C) = s(J/g⋅°C) / 4.184
Examples:
Convert 250 joule per gram-degree Celsius to calorie per gram-degree Celsius:
s(cal/g⋅°C) = 250J/g⋅°C / 4.184 = 59.75143403 cal/g⋅°C
