Electron is the smallest existing charge in nature.
Charge refers to a physical quantity that is quantized.
If the given charge of an electron, 1.6C (=1.6x10-19C) is considered as an elementary unit, the charge is supposed to be integral multiple of e.
Therefore, Q=+-ne with n=1, 2, 3….. After substituting the values of q=+-ne,
we find
1C=nx1.6x10-19C
N=6.25x1018
This value is hypothetical.
