joule
This answer needs further explanation. Heat is nota 'form' of energy, but describes 'energy in transit' between a higher temperature to a lower temperature. So it is incorrect to talk about 'heat energy'. Because heat describes energy in transit, it is indeed measured in joules.
What else can I help you with?
What is the use of heat as a convenient measurement of chemical energy in any reaction?
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.
What is the SI unit symbol for heat 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.
What unit is used too measure energy?
Energy of heat = Joules (J)
Is there a unit that represents heat energy?
Answer: Here in the US, our units of heat measurement are known as degrees.If you are referring to heat output, that would be measured in BTU's (BTU means British Thermal Units).Answer: The international (SI) unit for ANY type of energy is the joule. The older unit calorie is sometimes still used specifically for (a) heat energy and (b) food energy, but the use of the joule is encouraged instead.Another answer: The 'kelvin' is a unit of measurement for temperature.Please see the related link liseted below for further information:
What is the measurement of heat?
The measurement of heat is typically done in units of energy, such as joules or calories. In the International System of Units (SI), the unit for heat is the joule. Heat energy can also be measured in British Thermal Units (BTUs) in some contexts.
What is a nonSI unit of ilumination?
The Foot Candle.
Why unit of heat is the same with energy?
Heat is a energy form.So unit of heat is the same as energy
A unit of energy is the unit of what?
... is called power. The SI unit for energy is the joule; the SI unit for power is joule/second = watt.
What is the nonSI unit for temperature?
The SI unit for temperature is Kelvin.Kelvin = Celsius + 273Fahrenheit and Celsius are non SI units, however, Celsius is used in science as it is so easily converted to Kelvin.
The unit of energy is the same as what?
The unit for energy is the joule. That's also the unit for work and for heat - both of which refer to energy transfers.
What is heat what are unit of heat energy called?
Heat is molecular motion; the units are BTU and calories.
What unit of measurement is used for heat?
Heat is a form of energy and so the appropriate unit is a Joule.

Why is the joule the SI unit of energy also the appropriate unit for measuring heat?
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.
What is a unit of heat'?
The most common units of heat are the Calorie, Joule and BTU (British thermal unit) heat is a form of energy.
The SI unit of heat energy as well as all other forms of energy?
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.
