Understanding the Units
What is an Electronvolt?
An electronvolt equals approximately 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ joules — the kinetic energy gained by a single electron accelerated through a one-volt potential difference.
Common contexts: particle physics, atomic spectroscopy, semiconductor band gaps.
What is a Kilowatt Hour?
A kilowatt-hour equals exactly 3,600,000 joules — the energy delivered by 1 kW of power over one hour. It is the standard unit on electric utility bills.
Common contexts: electricity billing, home energy, EV battery capacity.
