the charge of either a single proton, or the absolute charge of a single electron is approximately 1.602176487(40)×10−19 coulombs .The magnitude of the elementary charge was first measured in Robert A. Millikan's noted oil drop experiment in 1909
To balance the charge of the single proton in the nucleus.
Modern Mass Spectrometry is the alternative method to measure the charge to mass ratio of an electron.
Yes they do. The basic 'quantum' of charge is the amount ofnegative charge on one electron, and also the amount ofpositive charge on one proton. The amount is0.000 000 000 000 000 000 160 217 646 Coulomb
1.6 x 10-19 coulombs
Because an electron carries a negative charge and in electricity, opposites attract. Particles with a negative charge will be drawn to the positive charge in the cathode tube.

There is less than one faradays of charge in a single electron. It takes thousands of electron to charge anything and only either protons or neutrons are capable of charging a single electron.
electron
A proton has single positive charge neutrons have no charge and a electron has a single negative charge
To calculate the number of electrons, you need to know the total charge of the system or material in question and the charge of a single electron (approx. -1.6 x 10^-19 coulombs). By dividing the total charge by the charge of a single electron, you can determine the number of electrons. Formula: Total number of electrons = Total charge / Charge of a single electron.
Millikan's oil-drop experiment demonstrated that charge is quantized, and that the quantum of charge ... the 'elementary' charge ... is 1.6 x 10-19 Coulomb.
There are two scientist working together: The oil drop experiment was an experiment performed by Robert Millikan and Harvey Fletcher in 1909 to measure the charge of the electron (the elementary electric charge).
The smallest amount of excess charge that a tape could possibly have is the charge carried by a single electron or proton. The charge of a single electron is approximately -1.6 x 10^-19 coulombs.
the charge of 1 coulomb is the charge associated with 6.25 billion billion electrons
It is a single negative charge, so the fluoride ion is denoted F-. The fluorine atom gains one electron to incur a single negative charge of -1.
The electron is not a chemical element: it is a small elementary particle with a negative electrical charge.
Millikan found the charge of an electron by his famous oil drop experiment. J J Thomson determined the specific charge of the electron. That means the ratio of the charge of an electron to its mass. With these two values one can find the mass of electron by dividing the charge value by its specific charge.
