Vedclass · Answer

(C) The total charge $q$ passed is given by the formula $q = I 	imes t$. Given $I = 1 \ A$ and $t = 16.1 \ 	ext{minutes} = 16.1 	imes 60 \ 	ext{seconds} = 966 \ 	ext{seconds}$. Thus,$q = 1 	imes 966 = 966 \ 	ext{Coulombs}$. The number of electrons $n$ is calculated using $q = n 	imes e$,where $e = 1.602 	imes 10^{-19} \ 	ext{C}$. $n = \frac{q}{e} = \frac{966}{1.602 	imes 10^{-19}} \approx 6.022 	imes 10^{21}$ electrons.
