Lesson: The Electron Volt Physics

In this lesson, we will learn how to define the unit of an electron volt and how to convert between electron volts and other energy units.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

recall that an electron volt is the amount of energy required to move an electron across a potential difference of 1 V,
convert between electron volts and joules,
convert between eV and J where the units have SI prefixes (kilo, mega, giga, etc.).
