Question

what is quantam of charge

Answer 1

The elementary charge, usually denoted as e or sometimes q, is the electric charge carried by a single proton, or equivalently, the magnitude of the electric charge carried by a single electron, which has charge −e.

Value in coulombs: 1.6021766208(98)×10−19 C

Definition: Charge of a proton

Symbol: e or sometimes q

Answer 2

Quantum nature of charge means the magnitude of charge on a body must be an integral multiple of the quanta of charge. Quanta of charge is the smallest possible charge in the nature that is equal to the charge on an electron.
