In legal terminology, a charge is an accusation by the police that a suspect (future defendant) has broken a specific law.
In science, charge usually refers to the physics concept of electric charge, a fundamental quantity of a particle that determines the way electromagnetic forces will affect that particle. Charge is typically expressed in units of coulomb. One well-known subatomic particle which carries a charge is the electron.
