Problem

Two carbon discs of 1.0 g each are 1.0 cm apart have equal and opposite charges. If forces of attraction between them is 1.00×10−5 N1.00 \times 10^{-5} \text{ N} , calculate the ratio of excess electrons to total atoms on the negatively charged disc. (Permittivity constant is 9.0×109 N m2 C−29.0 \times 10^9 \text{ N m}^2 \text{ C}^{-2} )
