Counting charge in coulombs

x

A tight educational diagram showing two charge carriers side by side: an electron moving through a metal wire and an ion moving through liquid, each with a small label “carrier” and a separate glowing tag labeled “charge” attached to it, emphasizing that charge is a property carried by particles, not the particle itself.

Charge is carried by particles

In electrochemistry, the moving things can be electrons in metal or ions in liquid. Charge is not the particle itself; it is a property the particle carries.
