wth ><

the coloumb is the measure of charge in an object usually an electron or proton

its like how a metre is a measure for distance

for future reference the charge on an electron/proton is 1.6x10^-19C

0.00000000000000000016C

which isnt that big

note that it is postive for protons and negative for electrons
