@ issac

q=ne

=> n=q/e = 1.5e/e=1.5

As, n is in fraction which is not possible. Because of Charge quantization, then, means that charge cannot take any arbitrary values, but only values that are integral multiples of the fundamental charge (charge of proton/electron).

Hence, a body can''t have a charge of 1.5e.
