The correct answer is: $100 \mu \mathrm{C}$
Given, $C=10 \mu \mathrm{F}=10 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{~F}$
$V=10 \mathrm{~V}$
$\begin{aligned} \text{Change,} \quad q &=C \times V=10 \times 10^{-6} \times 10 \\ &=10^{-4} \mathrm{C} \\ &=100 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{C} \\ &=100 \mu \mathrm{C} \end{aligned}$
