(Redirected from Kilojoule per mole)
The 'joule per mole' (symbol: J·mol^-1) is an SI derived unit of energy per amount of material. Energy is measured in joules, and the amount of material is measured in moles.
Physical quantities measured in J·mol^-1 include:

★ Heat of vaporization

★ Heat of fusion

★ Ionization energy

★ Heat Capacity

★ ''etc...''
When used to measure ionization energy, one can convert to electronvolts using the fact that
1 eV = 1 J/coulomb = F J/mole of electrons = (96485.38 ± 0.02) J/mole of electrons
where F is Faraday's constant.
