Convert j to kilocalorie (thermochemical)
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).
Kilocalorie (Thermochemical)
The thermochemical kilocalorie (symbol: kcalth) is a unit of energy equal to 4,184 joules exactly, defined within the thermochemical system where the thermochemical calorie equals 4.184 J. It is used in thermochemistry, calorimetry, and physical chemistry calculations. It differs from the IT kilocalorie by approximately 2.8 joules (0.07%).
