Convert Millijoule per kilogram kelvin to International table calorie per gram per degree Celsius
Convert Millijoule per kilogram kelvin (mJ/(kg·K)) to International table calorie per gram per degree Celsius (cal(IT)/(g·°C)) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
cal(IT)/(g·°C) = mJ/(kg·K) × 2.388458966e-7
About Millijoule per kilogram kelvin
The millijoule per kilogram kelvin (mJ/(kg·K)) equals exactly 10⁻³ J/(kg·K). Used for very light gases at extreme conditions and in precision calorimetry where tiny heat capacities must be measured. Rarely encountered in standard engineering but useful when expressing specific heat of dilute aerosols or highly rarefied media. 1 mJ/(kg·K) = 10⁻³ J/(kg·K).
About International table calorie per gram per degree Celsius
The international table calorie per gram per degree Celsius (cal(IT)/(g·°C)) equals exactly 4186.8 J/(kg·K) (1 cal(IT) = 4.1868 J). Standard in steam tables, international thermodynamic references, and pre-SI calorimetry. Slightly larger than the thermochemical variant. Water: 1 cal(IT)/(g·°C) at ≈15 °C. 1 cal(IT)/(g·°C) = 4186.8 J/(kg·K) = 1 kcal(IT)/(kg·°C).
