How to Convert Statcoulombs to Coulombs

To convert a measurement in statcoulombs to a measurement in coulombs, multiply the electric charge by the following conversion ratio: 3.3356E-10 coulombs/statcoulomb.

Since one statcoulomb is equal to 3.3356E-10 coulombs, you can use this simple formula to convert:

coulombs = statcoulombs × 3.3356E-10

The electric charge in coulombs is equal to the electric charge in statcoulombs multiplied by 3.3356E-10.

For example, here's how to convert 5,000,000,000 statcoulombs to coulombs using the formula above.

coulombs = (5,000,000,000 stC × 3.3356E-10) = 1.667823 C

Statcoulombs and coulombs are both units used to measure electric charge. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Statcoulomb?

One statcoulomb is the electric charge equal to one statampere of current over one second. One statcoulomb is the amount of electrical charge, that if two like objects carrying a charge of of one statcoulomb each are placed with the center of charge one centimeter apart, the objects repel each other with a force of one dyne.

The statcoulomb is a centimeter-gram-second (CGS) electrostatic unit of electric charge. A statcoulomb is sometimes also referred to as a franklin or ESU. Statcoulombs can be abbreviated as stC, and are also sometimes abbreviated as statC. For example, 1 statcoulomb can be written as 1 stC or 1 statC.

What Is a Coulomb?

One coulomb is the electric charge equal to one ampere of current over one second.^[1]

The coulomb can be expressed as Q_C = I_A × t_s

The charge in coulombs is equal to the current in amperes times the time in seconds.

The coulomb is the SI derived unit for electric charge in the metric system. Coulombs can be abbreviated as C; for example, 1 coulomb can be written as 1 C.
