  2. Joule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule

    One square metre of the Earth receives about 1.4 kilojoules of solar radiation every second in full daylight. [19] A human in a sprint has approximately 3 kJ of kinetic energy, [20] while a cheetah in a 122 km/h (76 mph) sprint has approximately 20 kJ. [21] One watt-hour, of electricity or any other form of energy, is 3.6 kJ. megajoule

  3. Electronvolt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronvolt

    An electronvolt is the amount of energy gained or lost by a single electron when it moves through an electric potential difference of one volt. Hence, it has a value of one volt, which is 1 J/C, multiplied by the elementary charge e = 1.602 176 634 × 10 −19 C. [2] Therefore, one electronvolt is equal to 1.602 176 634 × 10 −19 J. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt

    They made the volt equal to 10 8 cgs units of voltage, the cgs system at the time being the customary system of units in science. They chose such a ratio because the cgs unit of voltage is inconveniently small and one volt in this definition is approximately the emf of a Daniell cell , the standard source of voltage in the telegraph systems of ...

    1 kJ/mol, converted to energy per molecule [9] 2.1×10 −21 J Thermal energy in each degree of freedom of a molecule at 25 °C (kT/2) (0.01 eV) [10] 2.856×10 −21 J By Landauer's principle, the minimum amount of energy required at 25 °C to change one bit of information 3–7×10 −21 J

  6. Joule per mole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule_per_mole

    Other units sometimes used to describe reaction energetics are kilocalories per mole (kcal·mol −1), electron volts per particle (eV), and wavenumbers in inverse centimeters (cm −1). 1 kJ·mol −1 is approximately equal to 1.04 × 10 −2 eV per particle, 0.239 kcal·mol −1, or 83.6 cm −1.

    The photon energy at 1 Hz is equal to 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 J, which is equal to 4.135 667 697 ...

  9. Activation energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activation_energy

    The activation energy (E a) of a reaction is measured in kilojoules per mole (kJ/mol) or kilocalories per mole (kcal/mol). [2] Activation energy can be thought of as the magnitude of the potential barrier (sometimes called the energy barrier) separating minima of the potential energy surface pertaining to the initial and final thermodynamic ...
