Answer:

Β. 16 με

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question

Number of electrons removed = 10^14

And, the charge on one electron =
1.6* 10^ {-19C}

Based on the above information, the charged on the sphere is

Therefore when we remove the electrons

So, the equation would be


10^(14) * 1.6 * 10^(-19 C)

=
1.6 * 10

Therefore the same amount of the positive charged would be developed

Hence, the correct option is B.
