Electronvolt (eV) to Joule (J) converter

Converting from Electronvolt (eV) to Joule (J) | Energy

What is Electronvolt (eV)

An electronvolt (eV) is a unit of energy equal to the energy acquired by an electron as it passes through a potential difference of one volt.

What is Joule (J)

The joule (J) is the SI unit of energy and work. It is defined as the work done when a force of one newton acts through a distance of one meter.

The conversion formulas between electronvolt (eV) and joule (J) are as follows:

• To convert from eV to J:
  1(eV)=0.00000000000000000016(J)
• To convert from J to eV:
  1(J)=6250000000000000000(eV)

Examples

1. Convert 5 eV to J:

   5(eV)=5×0.00000000000000000016=0.0000000000000000008(J)

2. Convert 12 J to eV:

   12(J)=12×6250000000000000000=75000000000000000000(eV)

3. Convert 13 eV to J:

   13(eV)=13×0.00000000000000000016=0.00000000000000000208(J)
