About Electronvolt to Gigajoule Conversion
What is an Electronvolt (eV)?
An electronvolt (eV) is a unit of energy equal to approximately 1.602176634×10⁻¹⁹ joules. It represents the amount of kinetic energy gained by a single electron accelerating through an electric potential difference of one volt in vacuum.
What is a Gigajoule (GJ)?
A gigajoule (GJ) is equal to one billion (10⁹) joules. The joule is the SI unit of energy, representing the energy transferred when applying a force of one newton through a distance of one meter. One GJ is approximately equal to the energy content of 26.1 liters of gasoline.
Conversion Formula
To convert from electronvolts (eV) to gigajoules (GJ), use the following formula:
GJ = eV × 1.6022E-28
