Calculate the number of electrons constituting one coulomb of charge.
Charge is flow of number of electrons.
Q=ne
Q is charge, n = number, e = electron
Whereas, One electron possesses a charge of 1.6 × 10−19 C,
i.e., 1.6 × 10−19 C of charge is contained in 1 electron.
∴ 1 C of charge is contained in
Hence, 6x1018 electrons constitute one coulomb of charge.
