If a current of `0.5A` flows through a metallic wire for 2 hours, then how many electrons would flow through the wire ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`q=ixxt=0.5xx2xx60xx60=3600C`
`"96500 Coulombs are equal to 6.022"xx10^(23)e`.
So, 3600 Coulombs `=(6.022xx10^(23))/(96500)xx3600xx10^(22)" electrons"`
