To store charge, static electricity, or "a surplus / deficit of charge carriers". They may be looking for what you would accumulate a charge on. In this case, a capacitor, a Leyden jar, or just "shoes and carpet".

When did William Gilbert discovered electricity?
1660, William Gilbert discovered the Earth's Magnetic Field..
When was electricity created?
Although, electricity was not explicitly discovered, it was known that iodestone posessed magnetic properties, and when amber and jet were rubbed together, it attracted things (static electricity). In 1600 English scientist William Gilbert made a careful study of electricity and magnetism and coined the term electricus which further evolved in to electric and electricity. In June 1752 , Benjamin Franklin conducted first experiment in which he attached a metal key to the bottom of a dampened kite string and flown the kite in a storm-threatened sky. The ancient greeks knew of static electricity. Electricity as we know it was discovered and studied by various scientists in the 1700s.
Who found out about electricity?
Electricity occurs naturally in lightning and static, which must have caused wonderment for many years. It was known how to make batteries for many years, by pioneers such as Micheal Faraday, Voltair, Leclanche and Franklin. But no one knew what to use it for. There is even suspicion that a mysterious pot found in Baghdad, dating back thousands of years, could have been an early battery. known as the 'Baghdad battery'. Electricity was known about for centuries, but no one knew what it was, it's relationship with magnetism, or what to use it for, until the 1800's.
What is the process of studying nature at all levels and the collection of information that is accumulate?

How do you accumulate more scientific knowledge?
By using the scientific method to conduct research.
What happens when you pass electricity through tap water?
Typically passing electricity through tap water will begin to separate the hydrogen and oxygen in H2O. Oxygen bubbles will begin to accumulate at the positive contact and hydrogen to accumulate at the negative contact.
Why does static electricity and wood stick together?
Objects like a dry wood stick does not conduct electricity but they may accumulate electrostatic charges on their surface
What hazard is created electrical charge is allowed to accumulate to the point where an uncontrolled discharge occurs?

Why frictional electricity is known as static electricity?
Becuase static electricity is generated by rubbing or by friction.
Zap friends by static electricity?
Rub a balloon on your head or clothing to create static electricity. Then touch your friend on the arm or hand with the charged balloon, causing a small shock. Remember to be gentle and not use too much force when doing this.
What solution conducts to electricity is called what?
A solution which can conduct electricity is known as an electrolyte.
