Explanation / Answer

here,

diameter of cell , d = 7.6 um

radius , r = 3.8 um

r = 3.8 * 10^-6 m

charge q = - 2.5 * 10^-12 C

surface charge density , p = charge /surface area

p = -2.5 * 10^-12 /( 4 * pi * ( 3.8 * 10^-6)^2)

p = - 1.38 * 10^-2 C/m^2

or

p = - 1.38 * 10^-2 /( 1.6 * 10^-19) electrons /m^2

p = 8.63 * 10^16 electrons/m^2
