If 16mA of current flows through a conductor in one second, the number of electron transported per seconds is
[1 electronic charge = 1.6 x 10^-19C]

1.00 x 10²⁰

2.56 x 10^-18

2.56 x ^-17

1.00 x 10¹⁷

Correct answer is D

Current (I) = ^q/_t → q = i x t
= 16 x 10^-3 x 1
= 1.6 x 10^-2C
But 1.6 x 10^-19C = I electronic charge
1 coulomb = 1 / (1.6x10^-19)
∴ 1.6 x 10^-2 coulombs = 1 / (1.6x10^-19) x 1.6x10^-2 / 1
= 1.0 x 10^-2 x 10¹⁹
= 1.0 x 10¹⁷
