Asphere is charged with electrons to −8 × 10−6 c. how many electrons make up this charge? the elemental charge is 1.6 × 10−19 c.

Number of electrons = 5.6 x 10^13

Reason: 
Charge on 1 electron = -1.6 × 10^−19 C
Total charge of sphere =  -9 × 10^−6 C. 

Thus, total number of electrons making up the charge,
= = 9 × 10^−6 C / 1.6 × 10^−19 C= 5.6 x 10^13

5 x 10¹³ electrons

Explanation:

1) The charge of one electron is the fundamental charge (negative by convention): - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C (C means coulombs, which is the SI unit for charge).

2) Since you have the charge of the sphere, and know the carge on an electron, you just have to divide the charge of the sphere by the charge of one electron to determine how many electrons are in the given charge.

3) This is the calculations:

number of electrons = total charge / charge of one electron =


number of electrons = −8 × 10⁻⁶ C / ( - 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C) = 5 x 10¹³
