About Thermochemical Calorie per Gram Degree Celsius (cal_th/(g·°C))

Specific heat capacity equal to exactly 4,184 J/(kg·K), derived from 1 thermochemical calorie (4.184 J) per gram (0.001 kg).

History: Adopted in physical chemistry to relate calorie directly to the joule without relying on water temperature experiments.

Common Uses: Thermochemical tables, NIST chemistry webbook, standard enthalpy calculations.

About Joule per Kilogram Kelvin (J/(kg·K))

The SI unit of specific heat capacity (c), representing the heat energy in joules required to raise 1 kilogram of a substance by 1 kelvin.

History: Codified as the SI standard following the development of modern thermodynamics (liquid water has c ≈ 4184 J/(kg·K)).

Common Uses: Calorimetry, thermodynamic process design, thermal mass engineering.
