We know that 1 proton carries 1.6 x 10^-19 charge but I don't understand why the exponent is -19, I know it has to do with something very simple regarding exponents but I forgot so can someone please explain it to me?

Hi mate
Step-by-step explanation:
A negative exponent helps to show that a base is on the denominator side of the fraction line. In other words, the negative exponent rule tells us that a number with a negative exponent should be put to the denominator, and vice versa. For example, when you see x^-3, it actually stands for 1/x^3.
Hope it helps....
