How does the charge of one electron compare with that of another electron?

It is a fundamental assumption that each electron, proton and neutron is identical in mass and charge to every other particle of the same type. All electrons are identical, all protons, all neutrons.


What is one coulomb is how many electron?

This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.


How many faradays of charge does a single electron have?

There is less than one faradays of charge in a single electron. It takes thousands of electron to charge anything and only either protons or neutrons are capable of charging a single electron.


Number of electrons in one coulomb?

The Coulomb is a 'derived' unit depending on the basic units of the metric system. So one Coulomb is the amount of charge in an electric current of one Ampere/second--the Ampere being the current required to obtain an amount of magnetic force between a pair of current carrying wires. The Millikan oil drop experiment, which measures the charge on a single electron, provides the answer to how many electrons per second are in one Ampere. A single electron has a charge of 1.60217733 × 10-19 Coulombs. A collection of 6.2415 × 1018 electrons has a charge of one Coulomb (1/1.60217733x10-19).


How many electrons are contained in 1C?

To find the number of electrons in a charge, you divide the charge by the charge of a single election. In this case it would be: -1C/(-1.6x1o^-19)=6.25x10^18 So 6.25x10^18 electrons are necessary to produce a charge of 1 C


Explain in details what is charge?

An electric charge is a property of a subatomic particle that defines both of the influence of an electromagnetic field on this particle, and the electromagnetic field produced by this particle. It was discovered by Michael Faraday and expressed in Coulomb which equals 6.25E18 e where e is the charge of a single electron (elementary charge) which is −1.602E-19 Coulomb. by convention an electron has a charge of -1 while protons have a charge of +1. A proton is made up of three quarks (2up and 1 down). Quarks have a fractional charge of -1/3 or +2/3, the anti particles positrons, antiprotons and antiquarks have the opposite charge.


A single unit of neg charge is a?

electron


How many electrical charges are in protons?

A proton has single positive charge neutrons have no charge and a electron has a single negative charge


Who determined the charge on a single electron?

the charge of either a single proton, or the absolute charge of a single electron is approximately 1.602176487(40)×10−19 coulombs .The magnitude of the elementary charge was first measured in Robert A. Millikan's noted oil drop experiment in 1909


Do electric charges always exist in whole number multiples of a single basic unit?

Yes they do. The basic 'quantum' of charge is the amount ofnegative charge on one electron, and also the amount ofpositive charge on one proton. The amount is0.000 000 000 000 000 000 160 217 646 Coulomb


Is an electron made of a single element?

The electron is not a chemical element: it is a small elementary particle with a negative electrical charge.
