Question

Calculate the number of electrons constituting one coulomb of charge.

​

Answer 1

The value of the charge of an electron is 1.6 × 10-19 C.

According to charge quantization,

Q = nqe, where n is the number of electrons and qe is the charge of an electron.

Substituting the values in the above equation, the number of electrons in a coulomb of charge can be calculated as follows:

Therefore, the number of electrons constituting one coulomb of charge is 6. 25 × 1018.

Answer 2

Answer:

6.25×10^18

Explanation:

n=Q/e

we know that, Q=1C

=> n=1/1.6×10^(-19)

=> n=6.25×10^18

Thus one coulomb is the magnitude of charge possessed by 6.25×10^18 electrons.
