Unit Definition (electronvolt)
The electronvolt is a unit of mass used in particle physics. Mass and energy are related by Einstein's famous equation, E = mc2. The constant c is the speed of light, 299.79 x 10E6 m/sec. An energy of 1 electronvolt is therefore equivalent to a mass of about 1.782 662 x 10E-33 gram, or about 1.073 544 x 10E-9 atomic mass unit.

Unit Definition (gigatonne)
The gigatonne is a metric unit of mass or weight equal to one billion metric tons (tonnes) or about 2.2046 trillion pounds. This very large unit is used, for example, in discussing the amounts of carbon added to the atmosphere by human activities.
