Charge Converter

The Electric Charge Converter on Tolz.iO is a professional-grade utility designed for precise conversion between various units of electric charge. Electric charge, a fundamental property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field, is measured in numerous units depending on the application—from micro-electronics to large-scale battery capacity.

Extensive Unit Support:

Our converter handles a wide array of units, ensuring versatility for any project:

  • Standard Units: Coulomb (C), Kilocoulomb (kC), and Megacoulomb (MC).

  • Small Scale: Millicoulomb (mC), Microcoulomb (µC), Nanocoulomb (nC), and Picocoulomb (pC).

  • Scientific & Theoretical: Elementary charge (e), Faraday (based on carbon 12), and Franklin (Fr).

  • Battery & Power Systems: Ampere-hour (A*h), Ampere-minute, and Ampere-second.

  • CGS Units: Statcoulomb (stC), Abcoulomb (abC), and ESU/EMU of charge.

Technical Insight: What is a Coulomb?

The SI unit of electric charge is the Coulomb (C). It is defined as the amount of charge transported by a constant current of one ampere in one second (

$$1C = 1A \times 1s$$

). In the context of atomic physics, one Coulomb is approximately equal to

$$6.242 \times 10^{18}$$

elementary charges (protons or electrons).

 

 

  • Ampere-hour (Ah): Commonly used to measure the charge capacity of batteries. One Ah equals 3,600 Coulombs.

  • Elementary Charge (e): The electrical charge carried by a single proton or electron (

    $$1.602 \times 10^{-19} C$$

    ).

  • Faraday Constant: Represents the magnitude of electric charge per mole of electrons, vital in electrochemistry.
