Solution

The correct options are
B negative
C $1.60 \times 10^{- 19}$
An electron is one of the many constituents of an atom which serves as the negative charge holder of an atom. Charge of electron is $1.60 \times 10^{- 19}$ coulomb. Since the electron carries negative charge, this is mostly represented as $- 1.60 \times 10^{- 19} C$ .
