Whereas Ampere means ions per second


Charge (Coulombs) per second.


One Amp is one Coulomb per second.


Since the Ampere and the second are fundamental units in the SI system,
and the Coulomb is a unit derived from them and therefore is not a
fundamental unit, then one should say that

1 Coulomb = 1 Ampere-second

Read up on 'SI fundamental units'.
