![**Question:**
Which one of the following is not an expression for electric charge?
1. \(\int \sigma dA\)
*area*
2. \(\int \rho dV\)
*volume*
3. \(\varepsilon_0 \int \mathbf{E} \cdot d\mathbf{A}\)
*area*
4. \(\int \lambda dl\)
*line*
5. \(\int \mathbf{E} \cdot d\mathbf{A}\)
*area*
**Explanation of Options:**
1. \(\int \sigma dA\): Represents the integration of surface charge density (\(\sigma\)) over an area, which gives the total charge over that surface.
2. \(\int \rho dV\): Represents the integration of volume charge density (\(\rho\)) over a volume, resulting in the total charge in that volume.
3. \(\varepsilon_0 \int \mathbf{E} \cdot d\mathbf{A}\): Represents Gauss's law, which is related to the electric flux through a closed surface. It does not directly calculate charge without additional context or conditions.
4. \(\int \lambda dl\): Represents the integration of line charge density (\(\lambda\)) over a line, resulting in the total charge along that line.
5. \(\int \mathbf{E} \cdot d\mathbf{A}\): Represents the electric flux through an area and is part of Gauss's law. It does not directly express electric charge but relates to it under certain conditions.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F18fd5393-96f5-4954-af2d-c39e9984b0c1%2F464f3588-2ef5-4aed-88c0-b24ef66cb6dd%2Fpxuvm9_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
