About Kilocalorie to Electronvolt Conversion
A kilocalorie (kcal) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 calories, commonly used in nutrition and thermodynamics. One kilocalorie is the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius.
An electronvolt (eV) is a much smaller unit of energy, typically used in atomic and nuclear physics. It represents the energy gained by an electron moving across an electric potential difference of one volt.
Conversion Formula
To convert kilocalories to electronvolts:
1 kcal = 2.6114 × 10²² eV
