The coulomb (unit symbol: C) is the International System of Units (SI) unit of electric charge. It is the charge
(symbol: Q or q) transported by a constant current of one
ampere in one second:
1C=1A1s
Thus, it is also the amount of excess charge on a capacitor
of one farad charged to a potential dierence of one volt:

1C=1F1V

One coulomb is the magnitude (absolute value) of
electrical charge in 6.24150934(14)1018 protons
or electrons.[1]
Denition
other unit systems, the elementary charge has an exact value by denition, and other charges are ultimately
measured relative to the elementary charge.[8] For example, in conventional electrical units, the values of the
Josephson constant KJ and von Klitzing constant RK are
exact dened values (written KJ- and RK-), and it follows that the elementary charge e = 2/(KJRK) is also an
exact dened value in this unit system.[8] Specically,
e90 = (2109 )/(25812.807 483597.9) C exactly.[8]
SI itself may someday change its denitions in a similar way.[8] For example, one possible proposed redenition is the ampere...is [dened] such that the value of
the elementary charge e (charge on a proton) is exactly
1.6021764871019 coulombs,[9] (in which the numeric
value is the 2006 CODATA recommended value, since
superseded). This proposal is not yet accepted as part of
the SI; the SI denitions are unlikely to change until at
least 2015.[10]

In everyday terms
The charges in static electricity from rubbing materials together are typically a few microcoulombs.[11]
The amount of charge that travels through a
lightning bolt is typically around 15 C, although
large bolts can be up to 350 C.[12]
The amount of charge that travels through a typical
alkaline AA battery from being fully charged to discharged is about 5 kC = 5000 C 1400 mAh.[13]

The amount of energy transferred by the ow of 1
coulomb can vary; for example, 300 times fewer
electrons ow through a lightning bolt than in the
discharge of an AA battery, but the total energy

is 300 million times greater.
