How to convert Calorie/(Gram·°C) to Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C)

Multiply the number of Calorie/(Gram·°C)s by 1 to get Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C)s. Formula: kcal/(kg·°C) = cal/(g·°C) × 1. Example: 10 cal/(g·°C) × 1 = 10 kcal/(kg·°C). To reverse, divide Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C)s by 1 to get Calorie/(Gram·°C)s.

Worked examples

Example 1
1 cal/(g·°C) × 1 = 1 kcal/(kg·°C)
1 Calorie/(Gram·°C) equals 1 Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C).
Example 2
5 cal/(g·°C) × 1 = 5 kcal/(kg·°C)
5 Calorie/(Gram·°C) equals 5 Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C).
Example 3
10 cal/(g·°C) × 1 = 10 kcal/(kg·°C)
10 Calorie/(Gram·°C) equals 10 Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C).
Example 4 — reverse
1 kcal/(kg·°C) = 1 cal/(g·°C)
To convert back from Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C) to Calorie/(Gram·°C), divide by 1 or use the swap button above.

About Calorie/(Gram·°C) and Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C)

Calorie/(Gram·°C) (cal/(g·°C))

The Calorie/(Gram·°C) is a unit of Specific Heat measurement (symbol: cal/(g·°C)). 1 cal/(g·°C) = 1 kcal/(kg·°C). Used in scientific and practical Specific Heat measurement applications.

Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C) (kcal/(kg·°C))

The Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C) is a unit of Specific Heat measurement (symbol: kcal/(kg·°C)). It is part of an internationally recognised measurement system used alongside the Calorie/(Gram·°C).

History & origin

Both the Calorie/(Gram·°C) and Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C) developed through the standardisation of Specific Heat measurement. Converting between them is a common requirement in science, engineering, and everyday applications where different measurement systems are used.

Common use: Calorie/(Gram·°C) to Kilocalorie/(Kilogram·°C) conversion is needed when working with international standards, scientific publications, or reference materials that use different unit systems for Specific Heat measurement.
