what is dielectric constant?

answered-by-expert Expert Answer
Dielectric constant is the ratio of the permittivity of a substance to the permittivity of free space.
It is an expression of the extent to which a material concentrates electric flux.

 As the dielectric constant increases, the electric flux density increases, if all other factors remain unchanged.
This enables objects of a given size, such as sets of metal plates separated by material of high dielecric constant,
to hold their electric charge for long periods of time,and/or to hold large quantities of charge.
 
Materials with high dielectric constants are useful in the manufacture of high-value capacitors.

The number of moles in an elemental sample is just the ratio of the mass m to atomic mass 4. n= A The number of protons N, in an elemental sample is Z (atomic number) times the number of moles of Avogadro's number NA N=ZnN P A Copper has an atomic mass of 63.5 g/mole and 29 protons per atom. If such an atom were neutral, then it would have as many protons as electrons. If you remove electrons from a neutral state, then you get a net positive charge. Given a 54 gram ball of copper with a net charge of 2.2 µC, what fraction of the copper's electrons have been removed?
