Answer:

1.6 x 10^{-19} Coulombs

Step-by-step explanation:

In Physics, the standard unit of measurement of a charge is Coulombs and it's denoted by C. Also, the symbol for denoting a charge is Q.

In Chemistry, electrons can be defined as subatomic particles that are negatively charged and as such has a magnitude of -1.

The minimum charge on any object such as an electron cannot be less than​ 1.6 x 10^{-19} Coulombs and it's usually referred to as the fundamental unit of charge.
