A capacitor has a capacitance of 7.28μF. What amount of charge in (μC) must be placed on the plates to make the potential difference between its plates equal to 25.0 V?

Solution
We know that charge on capacitor is Q=CV=7.28×25=182μC
The charges on each plate of capacitor are equal and opposite. One plate will get charge −Q and the other plate is +Q.
