How to Get Charge?

For a single atom, the charge is the number of protons minus the number of electrons. Find the charge by balancing charge in a compound.

How do you calculate charge?

Calculating Electric Charge in Circuits

If you know the potential difference (V) in volts applied in a circuit and the work (W) in joules done over the period which it is applied, the charge in coulombs, Q = W / V.

How do you get electric charge?

Electric charge, which can be positive or negative, occurs in discrete natural units and is neither created nor destroyed. Electric charges are of two general types: positive and negative. Two objects that have an excess of one type of charge exert a force of repulsion on each other when relatively close together.
