One mole of a substance contains 6.02 × 1023 protons and an equal number of electrons. If the protons could somehow be separated from the electrons and placed in very small, individual containers separated by a million meters, what would be the magnitude of the electrostatic force exerted by one box on the other?

Step-by-step explanation:

it is almost zero .this is because the distance and the electrostatic force are inversely proportional
