Orders of magnitude (charge)

Comparison of a wide range of electric charges

This article is a progressive and labeled list of the SI electric charge orders of magnitude, with certain examples appended to some list objects.

Factor
[Coulomb]	SI prefix	Value	Item
10−21	zepto- (zC)
10−20			(−1/3 e) – Charge of down, strange and bottom quarks
10−19			(2/3 e)—Charge of up, charm and top quarks
	The elementary charge e, i.e. the negative charge on a single electron or the positive charge on a single proton{{Cite web	title = The NIST Reference on Constants, Units and Uncertainty	access-date = 31 March 2018}}
