What are Hartree and Therm

A Hartree, often denoted as E_h, is a unit of energy used within atomic physics, named after the British physicist Douglas Hartree. It is defined as the kinetic energy of an electron in a Bohr orbit of a hydrogen atom. Specifically, it is equivalent to the product of the reduced Planck constant squared, divided by the mass of the electron and the Bohr radius squared. The Hartree is a fundamental quantity in quantum chemistry and is widely used in the calculation of atomic and molecular energies.

A Therm is a non-SI unit of heat energy. It is commonly used in the natural gas industry, primarily in the United States, to denote 100,000 British Thermal Units (BTU). It is a measure of heat or energy produced, and it is used for billing and regulatory purposes in the energy sector. The therm is based on the energy equivalent of burning 100 cubic feet of natural gas, which roughly translates to an energy output of 105.5 megajoules.

History of Hartree and Therm

Solved Examples E_h to thm

Example 1: To convert 20 Hartrees (E_h) to Therms (thm), the calculation would be: 20 E_h = 20 × 0.00000095 thm = 0.000019 thm.

Example 2: Converting 100 Hartrees (E_h) to Therms (thm) is computed as: 100 E_h = 100 × 0.00000095 thm = 0.000095 thm.
