Answer: +2 e

Explanation: Net charge of a system is sum of charges on all the constituents of the system.

The system contains two spheres. Charge on one sphere is:

q₁ = +6 e

Charge on the second sphere is:

q₂ = -4 e

Net charge of the system is:

q = q₁ + q₂

q = +6 e + (-4 e) = + 2 e

Thus, the net charge of system is +2 e.
