    To solve this problem, we make use of the Binomial Probability equation. The formula is:

    P = [n! / r! (n - r) !] p^r * q^ (n - r)

    where,

    n = the total number of samples tested = 100

    r = the total number of defective chips = 0

    p = probability of being defective = 0.02

    q = probability of not being defective = 0.98

    Hence, substituting the values:

    P = [100! / 0! (100 - 0) !] 0.02^ (0) * 0.98^ (100)

    P = [1] * 0.02^ (0) * 0.98^ (100)

    P = 0.1326 = 13.26%

    Therefore there is a 13.26% probability that 0 defective chips will be found.
