Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

Calculate the electrons required for 3 C of charge.

Answer to Problem 1RP

The electrons required for 3 C of charge is 1.88×1019electrons.

Explanation of Solution

Calculation:

Consider the formula of charge in coulombs.

Q=Numberofelectrons6.25×1018electrons/C

Substitute 3 C for Q.

3C=Numberofelectrons6.25×1018electrons/CNumberofelectrons=(3C)(6.25×1018electrons/C)Numberofelectrons=18.75×1018electronsNumberofelectrons=1.88×1019electrons

Conclusion:

Therefore, the electrons required for 3 C of charge is 1.88×1019electrons.
