Ok, I think this is right but I am not sure:
Q = ϵ
0AE
A= π π
r^2
=(8.85x10^-12 C^2/Nm^2)
( π π (0.02m)^2)
(3x10^6 N/C) =3.3x10^-8 C = 33nC N = Q/e = (3.3x10^-8 C)/(1.60x10^-19 C/electron) = 2.1x10^11 electrons

How much charge can be added to each of the plates before a spark jumps between the two plates? For such flat electrodes, assume that value of 3×106N/C of the field causes a spark.
