For example, L/km can be defined as "liters per kilometer" by entering ==L/km as the symbol for the unit. A single " = " is used with an alias to specify that a unit code is an alternative name for another unit.
1 cal / °C⋅g = 1 Cal / °C⋅kg = 1 kcal / °C⋅kg = 4184 J / kg⋅K [20] = 4.184 kJ / kg⋅K . Note that while cal is 1 ⁄ 1000 of a Cal or kcal, it is also per gram instead of kilo gram : ergo, in either unit, the specific heat capacity of water is approximately 1.

Other units still in use worldwide in some contexts are the kilocalorie per gram (Cal/g or kcal/g), mostly in food-related topics, and watt-hours per kilogram (W⋅h/kg) in the field of batteries. In some countries the Imperial unit BTU per pound (Btu/lb) is used in some engineering and applied technical fields. [1]
KCAL-FM, a radio station (96.7 FM) licensed to Redlands, California, United States KCAL-TV , a television station (channel 9) licensed to Los Angeles, California, United States kcal , kilocalorie (1,000 calories), a unit of energy (sometimes referred to as 1 Calorie, with a capital C, as opposed to a small c).
A calorimeter constant (denoted C cal) is a constant that quantifies the heat capacity of a calorimeter. [1] [2] It may be calculated by applying a known amount of heat to the calorimeter and measuring the calorimeter's corresponding change in temperature.
