Open in App
Solution

Let one cup has 250ml of water.

The mass of one cup of water is given as,

m=250g

The number of moles of water in one cup of water is given as,

n=25018×6.02×1023

n=8.36×1024

Since, the numbers of electrons or protons in one water molecule are 10.

The positive charge is given as,

q+=10×8.36×1024×1.6×1019

q+=1.338×107C

Thus, in one cup of water there are 1.338×107C positive charge and 1.338×107C negative charge .
