What are Hartree and Megajoule

Definition of Hartree

A Hartree, symbolized as Eh, is a unit of energy used in the field of atomic physics. It represents the energy scale for atomic and molecular binding energies, specifically the energy of an electron in the ground state of a hydrogen atom. One Hartree is equivalent to approximately 4.359744650×10^-18 joules. This unit is named after the British physicist Douglas Hartree and is commonly used in quantum chemistry and physics for calculations involving the Schrödinger equation.

Definition of Megajoule

A megajoule (MJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI) equivalent to one million joules. It is a large scale unit commonly used to measure the energy content in fuels, food, and in larger energy transactions such as electricity generation and industrial processes. Being a standardized SI unit, it provides a clear and consistent way to express energy levels in scientific and industrial applications, allowing for easy comparison and conversion to other energy units.
