Answer:
1.6 x 10-19 coulomb is the charge on an electron.
What is an electron?
An electron is a subatomic particle commonly represented as e– or e. It possesses negative polarity. An electron inherits the properties like – Charge, Mass, Spin, etc. The values of the electron imply the value of the charge of an electron, the mass of the electron, and a quantum mechanical property- spin of the electron along with corresponding units.
