As a result of electrification, the body was given a charge of 10 ³ C. How many electrons were transferred to the body in this case?

Given:

q = 10 ^ -3 Coulomb – the charge that was imparted to a certain body as a result of electrification;

e = 1.6 * 10 ^ -19 Coulomb is the charge of one electron (constant value).

It is required to determine n – the number of electrons that was transferred to the body as a result of the electrification process.

To determine the number of electrons transferred to the body, you must use the following formula:

q = e * n, from here we find that:

n = q / e;

n = 10 ^ -3 / (1.6 * 10 ^ -19) = 0.625 * 10 ^ -3 + 19 = 0.625 * 10 ^ 16 = 6.25 * 10 ^ 15 electrons.

Answer: as a result of the electrification process, 6.25 * 10 ^ 15 electrons were transferred to the body.
