Quantity         
Electro-magnetic. Quantity is determined electro-magnetically by the measurement of current intensity for a second of time: its dimensions are therefore given by multiplying intensity or current strength by time. The dimensions of intensity are   ( (M^.5) * (L^.5) ) / T therefore the dimensions of electro-magnetic quantity are   ( ( (M^.5) * (L^.5) ) / T ) * T = ( (M^.5) * (L^.5) ) Quantity, Electro-magnetic, Practical Unit of. The quantity of electricity passed by a unit current in unit time; the quantity passed by one ampere in one second; the coulomb. It is equal to 3E9 electrostatic absolute units of quantity and to 0.1 of the electro- magnetic absolute unit of quantity. One coulomb is represented by the deposit of   .00111815 gram, or .017253 grain of silver,   .00032959 gram, or .005804 grain of copper,   .0003392 gram,  or .005232 grain of zinc. If water is decomposed by a current each coulomb is represented by the cubic centimeters of the mixed gases (hydrogen and oxygen) given by the following formula.   ( 0.1738 * 76 * (273 + Cº ) ) / ( h * 273 ) in which Cº is the temperature of the mixed gases in degree centigrade and h is the pressure in centimeters of mercury column; or by   ( 0.01058 * 30 (491 + Fº - 32)  ) / (h * 491 ) for degrees Fahrenheit and inches of barometer. [Transcriber's note: 6.24150962915265E18 electrons is one coulomb.]

Wikipedia

Quantity

Quantity or amount is a property that can exist as a multitude or magnitude, which illustrate discontinuity and continuity. Quantities can be compared in terms of "more", "less", or "equal", or by assigning a numerical value multiple of a unit of measurement. Mass, time, distance, heat, and angle are among the familiar examples of quantitative properties.

Quantity is among the basic classes of things along with quality, substance, change, and relation. Some quantities are such by their inner nature (as number), while others function as states (properties, dimensions, attributes) of things such as heavy and light, long and short, broad and narrow, small and great, or much and little.

Under the name of multitude comes what is discontinuous and discrete and divisible ultimately into indivisibles, such as: army, fleet, flock, government, company, party, people, mess (military), chorus, crowd, and number; all which are cases of collective nouns. Under the name of magnitude comes what is continuous and unified and divisible only into smaller divisibles, such as: matter, mass, energy, liquid, material—all cases of non-collective nouns.

Along with analyzing its nature and classification, the issues of quantity involve such closely related topics as dimensionality, equality, proportion, the measurements of quantities, the units of measurements, number and numbering systems, the types of numbers and their relations to each other as numerical ratios.
