A conductor has 14.4×10−19coulombs14.4 \times 10^{- 19}coulombs positive charge. The conductor has (Charge on electron =1.6×10−19coulombs= 1.6 \times 10^{- 19}coulombs)

A

9 electrons in excess

B

27 electrons in short

C

27 electrons in excess

D

9 electrons in short

Answer

9 electrons in short

Explanation

Solution

Positive charge shows the deficiency of electrons. Number of electrons

=14.4×10−191.6×10−19=9= \frac{14.4 \times 10^{- 19}}{1.6 \times 10^{- 19}} = 9
