Solution

a) False. Voltage is not the flow or amount of electric charge; it is the measure of the electric potential difference between two points in a circuit.

b) False. Current is the flow of electric charge through a conductor, not a measure of the amount of electrical energy gained or lost by electric charge.

c) True. Voltage is also known as potential difference because it measures a change in the potential (stored) energy of charge as it moves between one place and another.
