Electric Charge and Field
• Charge is measured in Coulombs (C), which represent 6.242×1018 e, where e is
the charge of a proton.Charges can be positive or negative, and as such a
singular proton has a charge of 1.602×10−19 C, while an electron has a charge of
-1.602×10−19 C.
• Electric charge, like mass, is conserved.

Coulomb's Law
View on Boundless.com
Electric Charge and Field > Overview
• An elementary charge -- that of a proton or electron -- is approximately equal to
1.6×10-19 Coulombs.
• Unlike protons, electrons can move from atom to atom.If an atom has an equal
number of protons and electrons, its net charge is 0.If it gains an extra electron, it
becomes negatively charged and is known as an anion.If it loses an electron, it
becomes positively charged and is known as a cation.

Static Electricity in a SlideFriction between the girl's hair and the slide results in a transfer of electrons, which causes the hair and slide to be attracted to one another.

Charge Repulsion and AttractionCharges of like sign (positive and positive, or negative and negative) will repel each other, whereas charges of opposite sign (positive and negative) will attract each other.

Electric Charge and Field
Coulomb's Law• Provides a way of exactly calculating the force that charges exert on each other
• q1 and q2 are the magnitudes of the charges (in Coulombs).
• K is Coulomb’s constant. K = 8.99 x 109 kg m3 s-1 C-2.
• R is the distance between the two charges.

r
Coulomb's Law – Simplified for Chemistry 11• The electrostatic force between two charges is…
• Stronger if the product of the charges is larger
• Stronger if the charges are closer together.
• For most applications we will not need to use Coulomb’s law to calculate the exact magnitude of the force.
