eV/mol Formula:
From: | To: |
eV/mol (electron volts per mole) is a unit of energy per amount of substance. It's commonly used in chemistry and physics to express energies on a per-mole basis, particularly for liquids and solutions.
The calculator uses the simple formula:
Where:
Explanation: This calculation gives the energy per mole of substance, which is useful for comparing energy content of different liquids.
Details: Calculating energy per mole is essential for understanding reaction energetics, comparing fuel values, and studying molecular interactions in liquids.
Tips: Enter energy in electron volts (eV) and amount in moles (mol). Both values must be positive numbers.
Q1: How does eV/mol relate to kJ/mol?
A: 1 eV/mol ≈ 96.485 kJ/mol. You can convert between these units using this factor.
Q2: Why use eV instead of joules for liquids?
A: Electron volts are often more convenient for molecular-scale energies, especially in electrochemistry and spectroscopy.
Q3: What's a typical eV/mol value for liquids?
A: This varies widely. For example, water has hydrogen bond energies around 0.2 eV/molecule (≈0.2 eV/mol when considering one mole of bonds).
Q4: Can I use this for gases or solids?
A: While the calculation works the same, this calculator is specifically designed for liquid-phase calculations where volume effects are different.
Q5: How precise should my inputs be?
A: For most applications, 4 significant figures is sufficient, but use more if you need high-precision calculations.
