    It's not. It's equivalent to the transfer of that many elementary charges every second.

    The elementary charge (charge on an electron) is

    1.60 x 10⁻¹⁹ coulomb / electron.

    The number of electrons in a Coulomb is the reciprocal of that number.

    6.25 x 10⁻¹⁸ electrons / Coulomb.

    There's the number. 1 Coulomb per second is called 1 Ampere.
