Solution

The correct option is A $10^{13}$ times
We have
$1$ micro coulomb= $10^{- 6} c o u l o m b$
and $1$ electric charge= $1.6 \times 10^{- 19} c o u l o m b$
We can see that 1 electric charge is of the order of $10^{- 19}$ and 1 micro coulomb is of the order of $10^{- 6}$ , hence an electric charge is $10^{- 6} / 10^{- 19} = 10^{13}$ times greater than an electric charge .
