Converting from Gigajoule (GJ) to Electronvolt (eV) | Energy

What is Gigajoule (GJ)

1 gigajoule (GJ)=109 joules

Gigajoule is a unit of energy, commonly used in engineering and scientific applications. It is equivalent to one billion joules.

What is Electronvolt (eV)

1 electronvolt (eV)=1.602×10−19 joules

Electronvolt is a unit of energy commonly used in atomic and subatomic physics. It is the amount of kinetic energy gained by a single electron as it accelerates through an electric potential difference of one volt.
