What is a Electronvolt?

The Electronvolt (eV) is a unit of energy used in atomic and nuclear physics, representing the energy gained by an electron accelerating through a potential difference of one volt.

What is a Joule?

The Joule (J) is the SI derived unit of energy. It is defined as the work done by a force of one newton displacing a mass by one meter.

How to Convert Electronvolt to Joule

To convert Electronvolt to Joule, multiply the Electronvolt value by 1.60218e-19.

J = eV × 1.60218e-19
