3.1 Net charge of an isolated system remains constant during any physical
process. ✓✓ (2)
3.2 Q = QP + QT ✓
= (–4 x 10-9) + (+6 x 10-9) ✓
= +2 x 10-9 C ✓ (3)
𝑄𝑝 + 𝑄𝑇
3.3.1 QNew = ✓
2
−4 x 10−9 + 6 x 10−9
= ✓
2
= +1 x 10-9 C ✓ (3)
3.3.2 Every charge in the universe consists of the integer multiple of the
electron charge. ✓✓ (2)
3.3.3 Q = n.qe ✓
2 x 10-9 = n.(16 x 10-19) ✓
∴ n = 1.25 x 1010 electrons ✓ (3)
