8 Bits are required to represent each key on the keyboard.
A bit is the basic unit of data storage used by a computer. Data is stored in binary format so, a bit will always have a value of either 0 or 1.
Together, four bits form a nibble and further a byte is formed of two nibbles.
Every key on a keyboard is associated with an ASCII code and is stored, using 1 byte or 8 bits.
A standard keyboard can have 101- 104 keys. Hence, we can conclude that every key on a keyboard shall be represented by 8 bits each.
