Explanation

Multiply by 1000 because 1 J/(g·°C) = 1000 J/(kg·K) and 1 J/(kg·K) = 1 J/(kg·K).

Method & Reference

Method basis: exact conversion formula shown in Snapshot.
Applied factor: 1 Joules per gram-degree Celsius = 1,000 Joules per kilogram-kelvin.
Consistency rule: calculator output and table values use the same constants and rounding policy.

Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

What result does this Joules per gram-degree Celsius to Joules per kilogram-kelvin page give for an input of 1?

For an input of 1 Joules per gram-degree Celsius, this page gives 1,000 Joules per kilogram-kelvin.

Does this Joules per gram-degree Celsius to Joules per kilogram-kelvin page treat Celsius and kelvin as the same temperature interval?

Yes. On this page, one degree Celsius and one kelvin are treated as equal temperature intervals, so the route only changes the energy and mass basis after reducing both units to the same thermal-capacity reference.

When would I convert joules per gram-degree celsius to joules per kilogram-kelvin?

This route is useful when switching between kilogram-based and gram-based thermal property reporting in laboratory, chemistry, and materials documentation.

How do I reverse Joules per gram-degree Celsius to Joules per kilogram-kelvin?

Use the mirror Joules per kilogram-kelvin to Joules per gram-degree Celsius route; it applies the inverse relationship with the same specific-heat-capacity assumptions.
