Homework Statement

How much work is done to move 1.7 microCoulombs of charge from the negative terminal to the positive terminal of a 1.5 V battery?

Homework Equations

I thought you multiply them together since P=IE? But this is wrong? What is the formula I use even? I know I need to convert microCoulombs to Coulombs.

The Attempt at a Solution

You might try looking up the definition of electrical potential (i.e. "voltage").

I still don't understand?? Can you explain further. This is a five part problem and this is the only part I'm stuck on

Voltage is DEFINED as the potential difference that one joule of energy can move one coloumb of charge across.
