The no of electrons it have in deficit=1.60
Given:
Charge possessed by a conductor = [tex]3.2 \times 10^{-19} C[/tex]
Charge of an electron=[tex]1.6 \times 10^{-19} C[/tex]
To find:
Amount of electrons in excess or deficit
Step by Step Explanation:
Solution;
Formula used for calculating electrons in excess or deficit is given as
Electrons in excess or deficit= Normal electron charge- Charge of the conductor
Also we know Charge of Conductor[tex]=3.2 \times 10^{-19} C[/tex] and Electron charge[tex]=1.6 \times 10^{-19} C[/tex]
Substitute these values in the above equation we get
Electrons in excess or deficit=[tex]1.60 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}-3.2 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{C}[/tex]
= -1.60
Result:
Hence, it has a deficit of 1.60 electrons.
