Question

Differentiate between "Volt" and "Electron Volt"

Answer 1

An electronvolt is the amount of kinetic energy gained or lost by a single electron accelerating from rest through an electric potential difference of one volt in vacuum. ... The electronvolt (eV) is a unit of energy whereas the volt (V) is the derived SI unit of electric potential.

The volt is the derived unit for electric potential, electric potential difference, and electromotive force. It is named after the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta.

Answer 2

Answer:

Electron volt is unit of energy and volt is unit of electric potential or potential difference

Explanation:

One Electron Volt is equal to the amount of energy one electron acquires by accelerating (from rest) through a potential difference of one volt.
