A ***** smell arises.
The quantums of electricity are "electron", "proton", "positron", and
"anti-proton"
Agrammatical idiot.
The quantums of heat would then be the "thermon" [or "pyron"].
Right??? If not, what is it?? It cannot be the photon or phonon for
reasons described above.

Go crack a physics book. Your bellybutton lint is lying to you.

Oh, boy.
The quantum of sound is the "sonon" [phonon?]
"Phonon". Look it up.
The quantums of electricity are "electron", "proton", "positron", and
"anti-proton"
No, it's the quantity of _charge_ carried by the above
particles, and others.

What is heat? At human scales (actually slightly below)
it's consonant with particle velocity. Since all particles
have mass, it ought to be momentum. There's no S.I unit for
momentum.
Do you know the difference between "temperature" and "heat"?

My following questions [of interest] ask about magnetic equivalents of
electricity:
Stop right there. Why do you assume there _are_
equivalents? Did you miss the last couple hundred years?
Electric monopoles in electricity = Magnetic monopoles in magnetism
There are no magnetic monopoles. Let us know when you
find out about quadrupoles.
<snip more fertilizer>
NOTE: [positive takes in energy and negative gives out energy]
[negative electrode gives out electrons and positive electrode takes
in electrons]
Where did this come from? Go bother Benjamin Franklin for
making a bad guess.
<snip more... you get the idea>
Electromotive force [i.e. voltage] = Magnetomotive force in magnetism
Uh, no.
What is magnetomotive force measured in?
Amperes in electricity = X in magnetism
What is X and what is it measured in?
There are textbooks for this kind of thing.
Coulomb in electricity = Z in magnetism
What is Z and what is it measured in?
Electron in electricity = M- in magnetism
What is M-?
Proton in electricity = M+ in magnetism
What is M+?
Here's a hint; look up "magneton". Notice there are several.
