How many excess electrons does an object with a total charge of -1.0 x 10exp-9C have on it? This is approximately the amount of charge involved in commonly encountered static electricity.
Answered by bobpursley
Divide the charge by the charge on one electron.

So if one electron is 1.6 x 10 exp -19 C it would be -1.0 x 10exp-9C divided by 1.6 x 10 exp -19 C correct?
