Quectocoulomb (qC) Unit Definition
The quectocoulomb is a multiple of the unit coulomb (C) for electric charge. The International System of Units (SI) defines the prefix quecto (q) as a factor of 10-30 or 0.000000000000000000000000000001. Per this definition, one quectocoulomb is 10-30 coulombs. The quectocoulomb is represented by the symbol qC.
