Chemistry - Electrochemistry Question with Solution | TestHub

The charge of a single electron is $e=1.602\times 10^{-19}$ C.

Let $n$ be the number of electrons required to generate a total charge $q=1$ C.

Using the quantization of charge, $q=ne$

$n=\frac{q}{e}$

$n=\frac{1}{1.602\times 10^{-19}}$

$n=6.24\times 10^{18}$

Answer: $6.24\times 10^{18}$
