Electron volt:
1eVis characterized as the energy that an electron acquires after being accelerated by a 1volt potential difference, thus 1eV=1.60210-19J.eV stands for electron volt.Mathematically,
W=qV=1e-C(1V)JCW1eV=1.6×10-19J
Here,
eV is the electron volt.
J is the joules.
W is the work done.
q is the charge.
V is the potential difference.
Consequently, it is the energy that electron would obtain if it were to move between two places with a 1voltpotential difference.
