The piece of plastic has   1.256× 10¹³  protons  more than  that of electrons.

<h3>What are protons and electrons?</h3>

A proton is a subatomic particle with a defined mass of 1 and a charge of +1 (positive charge). The symbol for the proton is either p or p+.

An electron is a subatomic particle that has a negative electric charge and that actively orbits the nucleus of the atom .

To calculate ,

given ,

magnitude of charge , q=+2μC=+2×10⁻⁶

Since, protons carry positive charge. Then, we know that standard number of proton in 1 Coulomb of charge is,

1C=6.28×10¹⁸ protons

Number of protons in 1 microcoulomb charge is,

=6.28×10¹⁸×10⁻⁶

=6.28×10¹²

Then for the net charge of q, the number of protons is given as,

np= q×6.28×10¹²

np= 2×6.28×10¹²

np=1.256×10¹³ protons

Thus, the piece of plastic has 1.256×10¹³   more protons than electrons.
