Becquerel Per Kilogram (Bq/kg) is the only unit in the category of Specific radioactivity in our database. It is also known as becquerels per kilogram, becquerel/kilogram. This unit is commonly used in the SI unit system. Becquerel Per Kilogram (Bq/kg) has a dimension of M^-1T^-1 where M is mass, and T is time. It essentially the same as the corresponding standard SI unit /kg/s.

Note that the seven base dimensions are M (Mass), L (Length), T (Time), Q (Temperature), N (Aamount of Substance), I (Electric Current), and J (Luminous Intensity).
