Convert Hartree energy to kiloton
Please provide values below to convert Hartree energy [Eh] to kiloton [kton], or Convert kiloton to Hartree energy.
1 Eh = 1.0420e-30 kton. To convert Hartree energy to kiloton, multiply the value by 1.0420e-30; to go the other way, divide by it (1 kton = 9.5969e+29 Eh). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 Eh = 1.0420e-30 kton
- 1 kton = 9.5969e+29 Eh
- 10 Eh = 1.0420e-29 kton
- 100 Eh = 1.0420e-28 kton
How to Convert Hartree Energy to Kiloton
1 Eh = 1.04200482791587e-30 kton

Hartree Energy
The Hartree energy (Eh) is a unit of energy used in atomic physics, representing the total energy of an electron in a hydrogen atom in its ground state.
History/Origin
Named after the American physicist Douglas Hartree, the Hartree energy was introduced in the early 20th century as a fundamental atomic unit of energy within the system of atomic units, facilitating calculations in quantum mechanics.
Current Use
The Hartree energy is primarily used in theoretical and computational chemistry and physics to express energies at the atomic and molecular scale, especially in quantum chemistry calculations and atomic physics research.
Kiloton
A kiloton (kton) is a unit of mass equal to 1,000 metric tons or 1,000,000 kilograms.
History/Origin
The term 'kiloton' has been used historically to measure large quantities of mass, especially in contexts like military explosives and nuclear weapon yields, where it signifies the equivalent of 1,000 tons of TNT.
Current Use
Today, kilotons are primarily used to quantify the explosive power of nuclear weapons and large-scale energy measurements, as well as in some industrial and scientific applications involving large masses.
