Hey
1 amp is equal to 1 coloumb per second.
A Coloumb is the fundamental unit for charge.
1 electron has an electric charge of -1.60217662 × 10-19 coloumb.
Q = N*e
Q is the charge in units coloumb (C). Q = 1 C here.
N is the number of electrons.
e is the charge of an electron. (Discussed earlier)
So N = 1/(1.60217662E-19) = Big Number!
I hope its help you

Given that
Charge (Q) = 1 C
Electron (e) = 1.6× 10^-19
Number of electron (n) = ?
Q= ne
1 C = n × 1.6×10^-19 C
n = 1/(1.6×10^-19)
n = 6.25 × 10^18 electron
