Question

The total charge of how many electrons is equal to 1 coulomb?

(a) 1.6 × 10¹⁹

(b) 6.25 × 10¹⁰

(c) 6.25 × 10¹⁸

(d) 6.023 × 10²³

WBBSE Class X Physical Science Current Electricity 01 Mark 2026

Answer

(c) 6.25 × 10¹⁸

Explanation

Charge of one electron = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Number of electrons corresponding to 1 C = \frac{1}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}

= 6.25 × 10¹⁸
