How to Convert British Thermal Units to Electronvolts

To convert a measurement in british thermal units to a measurement in electronvolts, multiply the energy by the following conversion ratio: 6.5851E+21 electronvolts/british thermal unit.

Since one british thermal unit is equal to 6.5851E+21 electronvolts, you can use this simple formula to convert:

electronvolts = british thermal units × 6.5851E+21

The energy in electronvolts is equal to the energy in british thermal units multiplied by 6.5851E+21.

For example, here's how to convert 5 british thermal units to electronvolts using the formula above.

electronvolts = (5 BTU × 6.5851E+21) = 3.2926E+22 eV

How Many Electronvolts Are in a British Thermal Unit?

There are 6.5851E+21 electronvolts in a british thermal unit, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 BTU = 6.5851E+21 eV

British thermal units and electronvolts are both units used to measure energy. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a British Thermal Unit?

British thermal units are a measure of heat energy. Specifically, one british thermal unit is equal to the amount of heat energy required to increase the temperature of one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit. They are often used as a way to rate the energy heat producing appliances such furnaces, and to price heating fuels such as natural gas.

The british thermal unit is a US customary unit of energy. British thermal units can be abbreviated as BTU; for example, 1 british thermal unit can be written as 1 BTU.

What Is an Electronvolt?

An electronvolt is the amount of energy required to accelerate an electron through a difference in electric potential of one volt in vacuum. One electronvolt is equal to the charge of 1.602176634 × 10−19 C, and is equal to the energy of 1.602176634 × 10−19 Joules.[1]

Electronvolts can be abbreviated as eV; for example, 1 electronvolt can be written as 1 eV.

Energy in electronvolts can be expressed using the following formula: E = qV

The energy E in electronvolts is equal to the electric charge q in elementary charge times the potential difference V in volts.
