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.
Kinetic energy per unit mass: 1 / 2 v 2, where v is the speed (giving J/kg when v is in m/s). See also kinetic energy per unit mass of projectiles . Potential energy with respect to gravity, close to Earth, per unit mass: gh , where g is the acceleration due to gravity ( standardized as ≈9.8 m/s 2 ) and h is the height above the ...
The "grand calorie" (also "kilocalorie", "kilogram-calorie", or "food calorie"; "kcal" or "Cal") is 1000 cal, that is, exactly 4184 J. It was originally defined so that the heat capacity of 1 kg of water would be 1 kcal/°C. With these units of heat energy, the units of heat capacity are 1 cal/°C = 4.184 J/K ; 1 kcal/°C = 4184 J/K.

All values refer to 25 °C and to the thermodynamically stable standard state at that temperature unless noted. Values from CRC refer to "100 kPa (1 bar or 0.987 standard atmospheres )". Lange indirectly defines the values to be standard atmosphere of "1 atm (101325 Pa)", although citing the same NBS and JANAF sources among others.
Boltzmann constant: The Boltzmann constant, k, is one of seven fixed constants defining the International System of Units, the SI, with k = 1.380 649 x 10 −23 J K −1.The Boltzmann constant is a proportionality constant between the quantities temperature (with unit kelvin) and energy (with unit joule).
