Abstract

A toner for developing an electrostatic charge image includes toner particles containing a binder resin; and an external additive containing silica particles, in which a coefficient of variation of a Si content is determined by determining the Si content in 0.5 μm×0.5 μm square regions in a surface of each of the toner particles after performing a process of dispersing the toner in water and drying the dispersed toner, and an amount of change between this coefficient of variation of the Si content and a coefficient of variation of a Si content before the process ((coefficient of variation of Si content after process)−(coefficient of variation of Si content before process)) is 0.05 or more and 0.60 or less.
