How the formula works
Both picojoule and electronvolt measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in picojoules by 6241509.074 to get electronvolts. To reverse the conversion, multiply a electronvolt value by 1.602176634e-07 to get back to picojoules.
Frequently asked questions
What is Picojoule (pJ)?
A picojoule (pJ) is a metric-prefixed unit of energy equal to 10-12 joules, a fraction of a single joule, using the SI pico prefix.
What is Electronvolt (eV)?
An electronvolt (eV) is the energy gained by a single electron accelerating through a potential difference of one volt, widely used in atomic and particle physics.
How do I convert picojoules to electronvolts?
Multiply the picojoule value by 6241509.074 to get the equivalent in electronvolts. For example, 5 pJ × 6241509.074 = 3.120755e+07 eV.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined against the SI base unit for this dimension, so the factor 6241509.074 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert electronvolts back to picojoules?
Yes. Divide the electronvolt value by 6241509.074, or multiply it by 1.602176634e-07, to get picojoules.
