1 electron has a mass of 9.1 X 10-31 kg. How many electrons n does it take to make 1 kg?
(1 e)/(9.1 X 10-31 kg) = n/(1 kg)
So, n = 1.10 X 1030 electrons
Each electron has a charge of 1.6 X 10-19 C, where C stands for Coulombs. So, the n electrons have a charge of q = ne = (1.10 X 1030 electrons) X (1.6 X 10-19 C/electron) = 1.76 X 1011 C.
