Did we solve your problem today?

Charge is quantized; this counts how many electrons make up a given charge.

The math behind it

N = |Q| ÷ e, where e = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C is the elementary charge.

−1 nC → about 6.24 × 10⁹ electrons.

Can charge be any value?

No — it's always a whole-number multiple of the elementary charge.
