I need your help for this question...

Define coulomb and describe the relationship between charged particles...

My answer is this: "Coulomb is a unit of electrical charge equal to the amount of charge transferred by a current of 1 ampere in 1 second."

I could not explain the relationship between charged particles, although I understand well that relationship. Could you help me?

a coulomb is a quantity measurement of electrons one coulomb contains 6,250,000,000,000,000,000 electrons or 6.5 x 10 to the 18 power .coulombs law of electrical charge states that the force of electrical attraction or repulsion is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them

Your answer is correct, but the amount of charge is 6.25 x 10^18 electrons. This is also the amount of charge transferred by 1 A in 1 sec.

A coulomb is a unit of electrical charge equal to the amount of charge transferred by a current of one ampere in one second. In other words, a coulomb is a quantity measurement of electrons that contains 6.5×10^18 electrons. Coulomb's law of electrical charge states that the force of electrical attraction or repulsion is directly proportional to the product of the two charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them
