The nucleus of each atom of the material contains a charge of 25e. Therefore, each atom contains 25 electrons.

Therefore, the total number of electrons in the material is N = 25 × 3 × 1022

Now, we know that an atom as a whole is neutral. So, to give the material a net positive charge, the number of electrons to be removed is

  

Hence, the percentage of electrons removed is
