Can a body have a charge of 0 .8 × 10 − 19 C ? Justify your answer by comment?

The charge on any body is always an integral multiple of e. Here q = ne Where n is any integer, positive or negative. n = q e = 0 .8 × 10 − 19 C 1 .6 × 10 − 19 C = 0 .5 This is not an integer. So a body cannot have a charge of 0 .8 × 10 − 19 C .
