Kcal per kilogram-°C to kilojoules per kilogram-kelvin
Type a value in kcal/(kg·°C) to get it in kJ/(kg·K) instantly.
4,184kJ/(kg·K)
That's 1,000× as much heat as water — nothing on our list beats it. Warming one kilogram by 10 °C takes about 41,840,000 J.
What it means
How much heat does it hold?
Values are at room temperature and constant pressure. Gases differ between constant pressure and constant volume.
The math
How to convert kcal/(kg·°C) to kJ/(kg·K)
To convert kcal per kilogram-°C to kilojoules per kilogram-kelvin, multiply by 4.184.
Example: 1,000 kcal/(kg·°C) × 4.184 = 4,184 kJ/(kg·K).
In the other direction, 1 kJ/(kg·K) = 0.239006 kcal/(kg·°C).
