Formula:
Specific heat capacity (c) is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one degree. Our calculator performs conversions using standard factors between various units. For example:
- 1 J/(kg·K) = 1 J/(kg·°C)
- 1 cal/(g·°C) ≈ 4184 J/(kg⋅K)
- 1 kcal/(kg⋅°C) ≈ 4184 J/(kg⋅K)
- 1 BTU/(lb⋅°F) ≈ 4186.8 J/(kg⋅K)
