State two basic properties of electric charges.

Explanation

Two basic properties of electric charge are as follows
(i) Additive nature of electric charge Electric charge is additive in nature . It mean if a system consist of two charges `q_1` and `q_2` , then the total charge of the system will be `q_1 + q_2`
(ii) Quantisation of electric charge The charge on any body can be expressed as the integral multiple of basic unit of charge , i.e., charge on one electron . This phenomena is called quantisation of electric charge . It can be written as `q = pm ` ne
