How to convert thermochemical calories per gram kelvin to joules per gram kelvin
Multiply the amount in thermochemical calories per gram kelvin by 4.184 to get joules per gram kelvin. The displayed factor and results are rounded to 12 significant digits.
J/(g·K) = cal (th)/(g·K) × 4.184Worked example
1 cal (th)/(g·K) = 4.184 J/(g·K). Change the amount in the calculator above to use your own value.
Units and assumptions
Uses joules per kilogram kelvin. These denominators are temperature differences: 1 K equals a 1 °C interval, while a 1 °F interval is 5/9 K, with no 32-degree offset. Calories are thermochemical (4.184 J), and BTU uses the International Table definition. No material heat capacity is predicted. Values are rounded to 12 significant figures for display.
Calculator results use floating-point arithmetic and are rounded for display. The reference table below uses up to 12 significant digits.
