Kilocalorie per kilogram-degree Celsius to joule per gram-degree Celsius Conversion

1 kilocalorie per kilogram-degree Celsius (kcal/kg⋅°C) is equal to 4.184 joule per gram-degree Celsius (J/g⋅°C).

1 kcal/kg⋅°C = 4.184 J/g⋅°C

1 J/g⋅°C = 0.2390057361 kcal/kg⋅°C

Formula

To convert a specific heat capacity from kilocalorie per kilogram-degree Celsius (kcal/kg⋅°C) to joule per gram-degree Celsius (J/g⋅°C), multiply the specific heat capacity in kilocalorie per kilogram-degree Celsius by 4.184

s_(J/g⋅°C) = s_{(kcal/kg⋅°C)} × 4.184

Examples:

Convert 1000 kilocalorie per kilogram-degree Celsius to joule per gram-degree Celsius:

s_(J/g⋅°C) = 1000kcal/kg⋅°C × 4.184 = 4184 J/g⋅°C
