Kiloelectronvolts to Gigajoules Converter

Convert kiloelectronvolts (keV) to gigajoules (GJ), with the formula, a conversion table and exact factors.

Change the values and press Calculate to work out your own figures.

Enter an amount of energy, choose its unit and the unit you want. The answer is exact until it is shown, and the same value appears in every other unit.

A number, fraction (3/8), mixed number (1 1/2), scientific notation (2.5e6) or a simple sum such as 2*3.
The unit you want the answer in. Swap exchanges the two units.

1 keV = 1.602176634 × 10⁻²⁵ GJ

Show the working
  1. 1 keV = 1.602176634e-25 GJ
  2. 1 × 1.602176634e-25 = 1.602176634e-25 GJ

How to convert kiloelectronvolts to gigajoules

1 keV = 1.602176634 × 10⁻²⁵ GJ, so multiply by 1.602176634 to go from kiloelectronvolts to gigajoules. Going the other way, 1 GJ = 6.24150907446 × 10²⁴ keV.

GJ = keV × 1.602176634
keV = GJ × 6.24150907446

Worked example:

1 keV = 1.602176634e-25 GJ
5 × 1.602176634e-25 = 8.01088317e-25 GJ
