A standard 60 W light bulb has a voltage of 130 volts. So, we use this conversion, the Faraday's constant which is equal to approximately 96,500 Coulombs per mole electron, and the Avogadro's number equal to 6.022×10²³ particles/mole . The solution is as follows:

W = Energy/time
60 W = x J/1 s
x = 60 J = 60 C·V

(60 C·V)*(1/130 V)*(1 mole e/96,500 C)*(6.022×10²³ electrons/mole electron)
= 2.88×10¹⁸ electrons
