Discuss the basic properties of electric charges.

Explanation

(i) Electric charge : The electric charge is another intrinsic and fundamental property of particles.
(ii) Conservation of charges : Charges are neither created or nor be destroyed but can only be treansferred from one object to the other. This is called conservation of total charges.
(iii) Quantisation of charges : The charge q on any object is equal to an integral multiple of this fundamental unit of charge e. q=ne Here n is any integer `(0pm1,pm2,pm3,pm4............)`. This is called Quantisation of electric charge.
