Dear Student,
In the International System of Units (SI) ,the unit of thermal conductivity is W/mK because thermal conductivity coefficient k is measured in watts per meter Kelvin (or degree) (W/mK) and coefficient k also depends on the temperature, physical properties of the material, water content, and the pressure on the material.
In the International System of Units (SI), thermal conductivity is measured in watts per meter-kelvin. The dimension of thermal conductivity is expressed in terms of the dimensions mass (M), length (L), time (T), and temperature (Θ).
Hope it helps!
Good luck
