when two neutral objects are rubbed against each other they acquire a charge of magnitude 1.6 micro coulomb.which particle(s) is (are) transfered in the process and how many ?

Question

unklerhaukus · Answer

ok, you are looking for a sub atomic particle that is charged , take a guess

anonymous · Answer

no not.
i am asking for the particles.
that how many are transfeered during the charging process (rubbing) ??

unklerhaukus · Answer

the question asks for both,

anonymous · Answer

yeah..you can say.
so can you look at this one please...
i am needy !!

unklerhaukus · Answer

so the three sub atomic particle you should know are 
the proton  $p^+$
the electron  $e^-$
the neutron   $n$

proton and neutrons are nucleons, which means they reside in the nucleus of the atom,  the electrons are in electron shells around the nucleus

I THINK YOU ARE NOT GETTING MY QUESTIONS.
BC'Z THATS ALL I KNOW.

I think the question is simpler than the above posts.  It asks "which particle(s) is (are) transfered in the process and how many"

The particles that are being transferred are electrons and you are given the fact that 1.6 uC are transferred.  The only missing info you need to solve this is the fact that 1 electron has a charge of 1.6x10^-19C.

unklerhaukus · Answer

the proton is positively charged 
the electron is negatively charged
the magnitude of that charge per electron or per proton is $$1.6\times10^{-19} [\text C ]$$
where Cis for Coulombs of charge

anonymous · Answer

I HAVE'NT UNDERSTOOD HOW MANY PARTICLES ARE TRANSFERED ?

unklerhaukus · Answer

only the electrons can be 'rubbed off ' because the are on the boundary of the atom,

unklerhaukus · Answer

charge acquired $$1.6 \mu [\text C]=1\times10^{-6}[\text C]$$

how many electrons is this if electrons are charged  $1.6\times10^{-19} [\text C ]/[e^-]$?

$$e^-=\frac{1\times10^{-6}[\text C]}{1.6\times10^{-19} [\text C ]/[e^-]}$$

unklerhaukus · Answer

i left off the .6 by accident

anonymous · Answer

electrons are transferred

1.6 micro coulomb
--------------
fundemental charge  of electron 

google fundamental charge

anonymous · Answer

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_charge 1.602176565(35)×10^−19

anonymous · Answer

basically, what the others are saying is this:
1 electron has charge of 1.6*10^(-19) C
so how many electrons will have the charge of 1.6 micro C [=1.6*10^(-6) C].
now can u take this further?
