Each of the following statements is related to conductors in electrostatic equilibrium. Choose the words that make each statement correct.
(i) The net charge is always zero [(a) inside; (b) on the surface of an isolated conductor].
(ii) The electric field is always zero [(c) inside; (d) just outside a perfect conductor].
(iii) The charge density on the surface of an isolated, charged conductor is highest where the surface is [(e) sharpest; (f) smoothest].
