Converting from Erg (erg) to Electronvolt (eV) | Energy

What is Erg (erg)

An Erg (erg) is a unit of energy in the CGS system, commonly used in physics. It is a very small unit of energy, with 1 (erg) equal to 625,000,000,000 (eV).

What is Electronvolt (eV)

Electronvolt (eV) is a unit of energy commonly used in particle physics and atomic physics. It is equivalent to the energy gained by one electron when it is accelerated through an electric potential difference of one volt. 1 (eV) is equal to 0.0000000000016 (erg).

Conversion Formulas

• To convert from erg to eV: E(eV)=E(erg)×625,000,000,000

• To convert from eV to erg: E(erg)=E(eV)×0.0000000000016

Examples

1. Converting 5 erg to eV:

E(eV)=5×625,000,000,000=3,125,000,000,000 eV

2. Converting 8 eV to erg:

E(erg)=8×0.0000000000016=0.0000000000128 erg

3. Converting 7 erg to eV:

E(eV)=7×625,000,000,000=4,375,000,000,000 eV
