The lightning bolt that moves 50.0 C of charge is converted to qe units. The conversion factor is 1 coulumb is equivalent to 6.24150975·10^18 e. Thus, converting 50 C to e is:

50.0 C * (6.24150975x10^18 e)/1C
equals 
3.120754875x10^20 e 

Answer: There are [tex]3.125\tims 10^{20}[/tex] number of electrons.

Explanation:

We are given 50 Coulombs of charge and we need to find the number of electrons that can hold this much amount of charge. So, to calculate that we will use the equation:

[tex]nq_e=Q[/tex]

where,

n = number of electrons

[tex]q_e[/tex] Charge of one electron = [tex]1.6\times 10^{-19}C[/tex]

Q = Total charge = 50 C.

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]n\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}C=50C\\\\n=\frac{50C}{1.6\times 10^{-19}C}\\\\n=3.125\times 10^{20}C[/tex]

Hence, there are [tex]3.125\tims 10^{20}[/tex] number of electrons.
