Question

define electron volt and atomic mass unit find out the energy equivalent to mass of a proton in joule.​

Answer 1

Answer:

1 eV or electron volt = 1.6*10-¹⁹ Joules. The definition of atomic mass unit is - "mass equal to one twelfth or (1/12) the mass of atom of carbon-12." Carbon 12 is an isotope of carbon containing six neutrons and protons. Given - Mass of proton - 1.6726 x 10-²⁷ kg.
