Show that electrostatic potential is constant throughout the volume of the conductor and has the same value (as inside) on its surface.

The charge given to any conductor resides on its outer surface,because

$A$ hollow conducting sphere is placed in an electric field produced by a point charge placed at $P$ as shown in the figure. Let $V_A, V_B$,and $V_C$ be the potentials at points $A, B$,and $C$ respectively,where $A$ and $B$ are on the surface of the sphere and $C$ is inside the sphere. Then:

Consider two conducting spheres of radii $R_1$ and $R_2$ with $(R_1 > R_2)$. If the two are at the same potential,the larger sphere has more charge than the smaller sphere. State whether the charge density of the smaller sphere is more or less than that of the larger one.
