More explicitly, what the students do in the lab is the following:
They measure the
slow discharge of the capacitor through a resistor, R. They record
the current at
regular time intervals, dt, say 5 seconds. They then graph the
current as a function
of time and obtain the total charge.
Why don't you assume that an equal amount of opposite charge flows in
the opposite direction? . . .
