SUMMARY

The conversion of 0.132 Hartrees/Bohr² to J/m² is accurately calculated by multiplying 0.132 by 4.36 x 10^(-18) J/Hartree and dividing by (5.29 x 10^(-11))² m²/Bohr². This results in a final value of approximately 205.7 J/m². The conversion process is confirmed to be correct based on the provided constants and calculations.

Not knowing what you did we can't say if you did it right.

Ugh. You're right...I can't believe I forgot to post that.

I took 0.132 and multiplied by 4.36 x 10^(-18) J/Hartree, then divided by (5.29 x 10^(-11))^2 m^2/Bohr^2. This gives me something like 205.7 J/m^2.
 
Looks OK to me.
