For conversion of units, use the Specific heat online unit converter.
See also tabulated values of specific heat of Gases, Food and foodstuff, Metals and semimetals, Common solids and other Common substances.
The energy required to heat a product can be calculated as
q = cp m dt (1)
where
q = heat required (kJ)
cp = specific heat (kJ/kg K, kJ/kg oC)
dt = temperature difference (K, oC)
10 kg of water is heated from 20 oC to 100 oC - a temperature difference 80 oC (K). The heat required can be calculated as
q = (4.19 kJ/kg K) (10 kg) (80 oC)
= 3352 kJ
