Coulomb
Coulomb is the SI unit of electric charge. One coulomb is the amount of charge accumulated in one second by a current of one ampere.
The charge of a proton is 1.6 x 10-19 coulombs. The charge of an electron is - 1.6 x 10-19 coulombs. An atomic particle has a charge which is an integral multiple of 1.6 x 10-19 coulombs.
Ampere
(A or amp) The SI base unit of electric current.
Definition: Two parallel conductors, infinitely long and having negligible cross section should be placed 1 meter apart in a perfect vacuum. One ampere is the current that creates between them a force of 0.2 µN (micronewton) per meter of length.
One ampere represents a current flow of 1 coulomb of charge per second.
One ampere of current results from a potential distribution of 1 volt per ohm of resistance, or from a power production rate of 1 watt per volt of potential.
The unit is known informally as the amp, but A is its official symbol and is named for the French physicist André-Marie Ampère.

Charged Particle
Charged particles (ions) range from lighter electrons and positrons to heavier alpha particle and other not neutral nuclei. The charge is measured in coulomb.
Electric Flux Density
(D) The electric flux density is a vector equal to the product of the electric field strength and the permittivity. The unit is coulomb per square meter (C/m2). The total electric flux passing through a closed surface is equal to the total charge enclosed by the surface.
Electric Polarization
(P) The electric polarization refers to the separation of charges in a material to form electric dipoles, or the alignment of existing electric dipoles in matter when an electric field is applied. The unit of electric polarization is dipole moment per cubic meter or coulomb per square meter(C/m2).
