The correct answer is (d) On the outer surface of the sphere.
In a conducting sphere, free charges redistribute themselves and reside only on the outer surface due to electrostatic repulsion, ensuring there is no electric field inside the conductor in electrostatic equilibrium.

    1. In a conducting sphere, excess charge distributes itself on the outer surface due to mutual repulsion among like charges. This occurs because charges in a conductor move freely and arrange themselves to minimize repulsive forces, ensuring zero electric field inside the conductor. Answer: (d) On the outer surface of the sphere.
