1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
A plate carries a charge of -3.0 uC, while a rod carries a charge of +2.0 uC. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate to the rod, so that both objects have the same charge?
3. The attempt at a solution
-2.0 uC / -1.6 x 10^-10 = 1.25 x 10^19 electrons
The wording of this question kinda throws me off. appreciate the help!
