Answer:

How to convert volts to electron-volts

How to convert electrical voltage in volts (V) to energy in electron-volts (eV).

You can calculate electron-volts from volts and elementary charge or coulombs, but you can't convert volts to electron-volts since volt and electron-volt units represent different quantities.

Volts to eV calculation with elementary charge

The energy E in electron-volts (eV) is equal to the voltage V in volts (V), times the electric charge Q in elementary charge or proton/electron charge (e):

E(eV) = V(V) × Q(e)

The elementary charge is the electric charge of 1 electron with the e symbol.

So

electronvolt = volt × elementary charge

or

eV = V × e

Example

What is the energy in electron-volts that is consumed in an electrical circuit with voltage supply of 20 volts and charge flow of 40 electron charges?

E = 20V × 40e = 800eV

Volts to eV calculation with coulombs

The energy E in electron-volts (eV) is equal to the voltage V in volts (V), times the electrical charge Q in coulombs (C) divided by 1.602176565×10-19:

E(eV) = V(V) × Q(C) / 1.602176565×10-19

So

electronvolt = volt × coulomb / 1.602176565×10-19

or

eV = V × C / 1.602176565×10-19

Example

What is the energy in electron-volts that is consumed in an electrical circuit with voltage supply of 20 volts and charge flow of 2 coulombs?

E = 20V × 2C / 1.602176565×10-19 = 2.4966×1020eV
