Answer:

amount of electric charge transported = 1.13 ×
10^(-2) C

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

electric current = 237.0 mA = 0.237 A

time = 8 min = 8 × 60 sec = 480 sec

solution

we get here amount of electric charge transported that is express as

amount of electric charge transported = electric current × time ...........1

put here value and we get

amount of electric charge transported = 0.237 × 480

amount of electric charge transported = 113.76 C

amount of electric charge transported = 1.13 ×
10^(-2) C
