The quantation of electric charge is the charge carried by the electrons and it has the magnitude of e=1/6×10^-19c
In nature the electric charge of any system is always an integral multiple of least amount of charge.This means that the quantity can take any one of the discrete set of values.The charge q=ne. where n is the integer....

Charge only comes in countable numbers. The smallest amount of charge that has ever been observed is the charge on the electron and/or the charge on the proton (both the same amount, but opposite type). Hence the term "quantization of charge." Quantum or "quantized" means that it is numbered or integer-countable (can come in -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. but not 1.5 or pi, etc), and a quantum is essentially one of those quantized objects. The total charge on a charged object is therefore the number of individual charges, all of which are either electrons or protons, multiplied by the charge on one of them. This explains the existence of the following equation:
Q=n*e
Q=n*e
