+2 (2 x the absolute value of the charge of an electron).
It will repel
The beam would be deflected to the negative plate, as alpha particles are Helium nuclei and are positively charged.
An alpha particle has a charge of 2, which means it is positively charged.
Charged ions
The beam of alpha particles is deflected toward the negatively charged plate. This is because alpha particles are positively charged, and opposite charges attract each other.
