Question

Proton has the charge of +1.6022 $\times$ ${10}^{-19}$C.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

Goldstein discovered the positively charged particles called protons.

$\Rightarrow$ According to his canal rays experiment:

$\Rightarrow$ The charge on the proton has the same magnitude as that of an electron but of opposite sign.

We know,

Charge on electron = - 1.6 $\times$ ${10}^{-19}$ C

Therefore,

Charge on proton = +1.6 $\times$ ${10}^{-19}$ C
