Convert calorie (it) to j
Calorie (IT)
The International Table calorie (symbol: calIT) is a unit of energy equal to 4.1868 joules, defined by the International Steam Table convention adopted in 1956. It is used in thermodynamics and engineering heat transfer calculations where consistency with steam table data is required. One cal (IT) is slightly larger than the thermochemical calorie (4.184 J).
Joule
The joule (/dʒaʊ,dʒuːljawl, jool; symbol: J) is a derived unit of energy in the International System of Units. It is equal to the energy transferred to (or work done on) an object when a force of one newton acts on that object in the direction of the force's motion through a distance of one metre (1 newton metre or N⋅m). It is also the energy dissipated as heat when an electric current of one ampere passes through a resistance of one ohm for one second. It is named after the English physicist James Prescott Joule (1818–1889).
