To convert a measurement in electronvolts to a measurement in megacalories, multiply the energy by the following conversion ratio: 3.8293E-26 megacalories/electronvolt.

Since one electronvolt is equal to 3.8293E-26 megacalories, you can use this simple formula to convert:

megacalories = electronvolts × 3.8293E-26

The energy in megacalories is equal to the energy in electronvolts multiplied by 3.8293E-26.

For example, here's how to convert 5.0E+25 electronvolts to megacalories using the formula above.
megacalories = (5.0E+25 eV × 3.8293E-26) = 1.914647 Mcal

Electronvolts and megacalories are both units used to measure energy. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

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.

What Is a Megacalorie?

One megacalorie is equal to 1,000,000 calories, which is the heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water from 14.5 to 15.5 degrees Celsius. One megacalorie is equal to 4.184 megajoules.

Megacalories can be abbreviated as Mcal; for example, 1 megacalorie can be written as 1 Mcal.
