        An electron initially at rest is accelerated through a potential difference of\[1V\]. The energy acquired by electron is

    A)  \[{{10}^{-19}}J\]                             

    B)  \[1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}erg\]

    C)  \[1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}J\]                         

    D)  \[1J\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Work required to move one electron (e) through a potential difference of 1 V, gives the unit of energy abbreviate as eV. That is, Energy = eV Given,   \[e=1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}C,V=1V\] \[\therefore \]Energy \[=1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\times 1=1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}J\] Note: A volt is not a measure of energy, while an electron volt is a measure of energy.
