A Metal sphere A has a charge of +6 units and an identicalmetal sphere, B, has a charge of -4 units. If the spheres are brought into contact with each other and then seperated, the charge on sphere B will be _______. College Physics, equation or work would be nice. Thanks ^^^^

1 answer

One way to think about it is (not really but way to figure)
there are 6 extra protons on A
There are 4 extra electrons on B
If you bring them together you will be left with 2 protons to split between them
They will each have a charge of +1
