elementaryCharge is the exact magnitude of the charge carried by a proton, and the magnitude of an electron’s charge.
The electron has negative charge while the constant is a positive magnitude. Use it with faraday and avogadro. Keep coulomb units explicit.
Enter elementaryCharge on a calculator line to see its built-in value, or place the name inside a longer expression. Keep any displayed unit attached when converting or combining physical quantities, and check that every other value uses a compatible dimension.
The example above is editable, so you can replace surrounding values and test the constant in your own formula. Browse all constants to compare related values and notation.
