Know the Answer?

Paxton · Answer 1

The correct answer is E.-2

Explanation:

Net charge or electric charge is the physical property of the matter, which makes it to experience a force, when it is placed in an electromagnetic field. The unit of charge is Coulomb, C.

Types:

Thee are 2 types of electric charges:

1 - Positive Charge

2 - Negative Charge

How to calculate net charge?

First we have to look at the composition or our element. Then simply add the number of protons then substrate the total electrons present.
