One coulomb of electric charge per second passing a fixed point in a conductor

is the definition of a current of 1 Ampere through the conductor.

Comment

An ampere is most definitely not defined as a 'coulomb per second'. It is defined in terms of the force between two, parallel, current carrying conductors.

One coulomb per second is equal to one ampere, which represents the rate of flow of electric charge in a circuit. This is known as the SI unit of electric current.
