उत्तर

Given: Current (I) = 0.5 A

Time (t) = 2 hours = 2 × 60 × 60 s = 7200 s

Charge (Q) = It

= 0.5 A × 7200 s

= 3600 C

We know that 96487 C = 6.023 × 1023 number of electrons

Then,

3600 C = `(6.023 xx 10^(23) xx 3600)/9648` number of electrons

= 2.25 × 1022 number of electrons

Hence, 2.25 × 1022 number of electrons will flow through the wire.
