Number of electrons in 1 Coulomb charge is _________(a) 6.25*10^21(b) 6.25*10^20(c) 6.25*10^25(d) 6.25*10^23I got this question by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.This key question is from Electric Charges topic in section Charges and Fields of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

The correct option is (a) 6.25*10^21

The best explanation: Electron has the charge of 1.602*10^-19 COULOMB. So, the number of electrons in 1 Coulomb of charge is \(\frac{1}{1.602*10^{-19}}\) = 6.25*10^21. This huge number of electrons can be ACCUMULATED to form 1C of charge. Thus, we can conclude that we NEED Avogadro’s number of electrons (approximately) to GET 100C charges.
