What are Kilojoule and Attojoule

Definition of Kilojoule

A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to 1,000 joules. Joules are a derived unit of energy, work, or amount of heat. A kilojoule represents the amount of energy needed to perform a certain task, such as moving an object over a distance with a force of one Newton, or the energy released in various chemical reactions.

Definition of Attojoule

An attojoule (aJ) is a minuscule unit of energy in the metric system. It is equal to one quintillionth of a joule (1 aJ = 10^-18 joules). The prefix 'atto-' denotes a scale that is incredibly small, reflecting the attojoule's use in scientific fields to measure and represent very low levels of energy, such as the energy levels in atomic and subatomic processes.
