The unit of electric charge is the Coulomb.

It's the amount of charge on 6,242,197,000,000,000,000 (6.242 x 1018) electrons (or protons).

It's also the amount of charge that passes a point in one second in a conductor carrying 1 Ampere of current.

Well in electronics they generally use a power of ten of the coulomb. For example, 10^3C=1KC.

That's the Coulomb. It's the amount of charge that flows past a point

in a wire in 1 second, when the current is 1 Ampere.
