Electrons are said to carry negative charge, while protons are said to carry positive charge, although these labels are completely arbitrary. The charge of the electron is equivalent to the magnitude of the elementary charge (e) but bearing a negative sign. Since the value of the elementary charge is roughly 1.602 x 10-19 coulombs (C), then the charge of the electron is -1.602 x 10-19 C. When expressed in atomic units, the elementary charge takes the value of unity; i.e., e = 1. Thus, the electron's charge can be denoted by -e.
