Question

define quantisation of charge

Answer 1

➖The basic definition of quantization is:-

The process in which the continuous range of values is sampled and divided into a discrete value.

➖️quantization of electric charge means that:-

⭕️ charge exists in nature as an integral multiple of the smallest amount of charge

⭕️ The smallest amount of charge is usually denoted as “e”.

⭕️And the value of e is given to be as :-

e = 1.6 × 10- 1 9 C.

⭕️The study says that the charges of quarks are fractions have a charge of:-

+2÷3e

⭕️The energy levels of electrons in atoms are also  quantized.

Answer 2

Quantization of charge means that when we say something has a givencharge, we mean that that is how many times the charge of a single electron it has. Because all chargesare associated with a whole electron, this is possible. So electrons have a a negative charge, negative charge.

We have found particles, the electron and proton, that have exactly this much charge in negative and positive. Quantization of charge means the charge on an object is integral multiple of the basic unit of charge (charge on one electron) denoted by e. i.e Q=ne where n is some integer.
