Hello. My question is:
When a capacitor in LC circuit is out of charge (T/4) does that mean that all electrons left the capacitor or that there is the same quantity of electrons on both plates?

Think of this like the more familiar battery. The battery has to be in a circuit (red and black leads) to charge it. The answer to your question is along the same lines.
