Answer:

The correct option is d) 6.25×1018 electrons

There are 6.25×1018 electrons in a one-coulomb charge.

A coulomb is a charge carried by an ampere per the second current.
1C=1A * 1s
We know Ampere and second are SI base units. So Coulomb’s value is obtained from these. In Millikan’s experiment, approximately 6.25×1018 electrons traveled across a unit area of the cross-section in 1 second.
