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