What is a kiloelectron-volt (keV)?

A kiloelectron-volt is an energy unit equal to 1,000 electronvolts, used mainly in atomic, nuclear, and radiation physics to express energies of particles and photons.

What does mega Btu (IT) measure?

Mega Btu (IT) measures thermal energy, specifically one million British thermal units as defined by the International Table, commonly used to quantify heat content in fuels and heating systems.

Why is the conversion value so small?

Because kiloelectron-volts represent tiny atomic-scale energies and mega Btu (IT) represents large-scale heat energy, the conversion factor is extremely small.
