The electric charge of a proton is +1 elementary charge unit. That means its charge is 1.6021764e-19 Coulombs.
A proton
1.602e-19 is the value in coulombs of the "Elementary charge", denoted by e.
The proton has a positive charge of +1.
No, the absolute charge of proton is equal to the absolute charge of electrons. however, their relative charge is opposite in sign.
The magnitude of the electric charge on the proton can be seen as an assigned (or a derived) value, notated as +1 where the "+" is the sign on the charge, and "1" the value or magnitude. Electric charge in general reflects quantization - that charge exists in discrete units known as the elementary charge, "e", taken to be the charge on the electron (whose magnitude is the same but sign ("-") is opposite that of the proton). The value in practical units (Coulomb) is about 1.602 x 10^-19 Coulomb. Charge answers to a quantum number which notably is preserved in particle interactions. The nature of charge can be shown in how charged particles such as protons react to the fundamental forces; in the case of electric charge the force of interest would be the electromagnetic force. In this sense its nature could be defined by how it reacts when placed in an electromagnetic field. Since the proton is a composite particle made of up smaller charged particles which contribute to its overall charge, a full exploration of the nature of electric charge would include an understanding of its three component quarks, which are assigned fractional units of elementary charge, and the sum of the combined fractional charges (+2/3, +2/3, -1/3) equals +1 for the proton. Note that charge in another sense (color charge, relating to a different fundamental force) is evident for protons; a fuller exploration of the subject is the area of quantum chromodynamics.

A proton
It is a subatomic particle , with positive electric charge of 1 elementary charge .
Proton rest-mass . . . 1.67 x 10-27 kg Proton charge . . . . . +1 elementary charge (1.60 x 10-19 coul)
Elementary charge is the charge of a proton or an electron. It is denoted by the symbol "e". Its value is 1.602 x 10-19 C
The Proton has a positive charge equal to the elementary charge. This is due to its composition of a down quark and two up quarks which have charges of -1/3 the elementary charge and +2/3 the elementary charge respectively.
Yes. A proton has the same magnitude of charge as an electron, but the charge is of the opposite sign.
a subatomic particle with a positive electric charge of one elementary charge also it is found in the nucleus of an atom with neutrons
With relation to an electron the proton has a charge of -1, since the proton's charge is opposite of the electron's. However, the common notation of charge is relative to a proton's- therefore, it is more accurate to leave things in terms of a proton's charge. In terms of proton charge, a proton has a charge of +1.
The atomic nucleus contain nucleons: protons and neutrons; these particles are formed from quarks and gluons. The proton has an electrical positive charge of 1; the neutron has not electrical charge.
