Iron atoms have been detected in the sun's atmosphere, some with many of their electrons stripped away. What is the net electric charge (in coulombs) of an iron atom with 26 protons and 8 electrons? Be sure to include the algebraic sign (+ or -) in your answer.

2.88x10⁻¹⁸ C

Explanation:

The net charge is given by:

Where:

np: is the quantity of protons = 26

ne: is the quantity of electrons =  8

p: is the charge of protons = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C

e: is the charge of electrons = -1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C

Hence the net charge is:

Therefore, the net charge is 2.88x10⁻¹⁸ C.
