Answer

1 volt is defined as the electric potential difference between two points when one joule of energy is used to move one coulomb of electric charge between those points.

Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

1 V=1 J1 C1\ \text{V} = \frac{1\ \text{J}}{1\ \text{C}}

where V is volts, J is joules (energy), and C is coulombs (charge).
