Heat is a energy form.So unit of heat is the same as energy
The unit for energy is the joule. That's also the unit for work and for heat - both of which refer to energy transfers.
The SI unit for heat is the same as for energy, the joule (newton-meter). The SI unit for temperature (comparative heat potential) is the Kelvin (K).
The same as the SI unit for energy - the joule.The same as the SI unit for energy - the joule.The same as the SI unit for energy - the joule.The same as the SI unit for energy - the joule.
... is called power. The SI unit for energy is the joule; the SI unit for power is joule/second = watt.
Quite simply, because heat is also a form of energy. It has been found that a certain amount of mechanical energy is equivalent to a certain amount of heat energy; it makes sense to use the same unit for all kinds of energy.
Work is transfer of energy; thus, the unit of work is the same as the unit of energy. The SI unit is called "Joule".Work is transfer of energy; thus, the unit of work is the same as the unit of energy.

The SI unit is called "Joule".Work is transfer of energy; thus, the unit of work is the same as the unit of energy. The SI unit is called "Joule".
Heat is molecular motion; the units are BTU and calories.
Heat is a form of energy and so the appropriate unit is a Joule.
Energy is measured in joules. Sometimes the older unit "calorie" is used instead - this is a unit defined on the basis of heat, but it is still a unit of energy.
Heat is a form of energy. In terms of kinetic theory it can be defined asthe sum of kinetic energy of molecules in a sample of a substance.-- Its SI unit is the Joule.-- Its CGS unit is the erg = 10-7 joule.Comment'Heat' is energy in transit between a warmer body and a cooler body. The definition given in the original answer is for 'internal energy', not heat.
The SI unit for energy - any type of energy - is the Joule.The SI unit for energy - any type of energy - is the Joule.The SI unit for energy - any type of energy - is the Joule.The SI unit for energy - any type of energy - is the Joule.
The most common units of heat are the Calorie, Joule and BTU (British thermal unit) heat is a form of energy.
