Why is converting from J/(g·°C) to kgf·m/kg/K important?

It enables interpretation and comparison of specific heat capacity data between SI and gravitational force units used in various engineering and historical contexts.

Are degree Celsius and kelvin interchangeable for specific heat capacity conversions?

Yes, increments of degree Celsius and kelvin are equivalent, but consistent use is essential to avoid calculation errors.

What should I be cautious about when using kilogram-force meter/kilogram/K units?

Since it is a non-SI unit, understanding its context and potential slight discrepancies due to gravitational constant precision is important.
