Answer #1:
no

Answer #2:
Of course.
When you rub a comb with wool and then pick up bits of tissue with it, or
when you rub a balloon on your sweater and then stick it to the wall, the
comb and the balloon store the static charge, until something else ... like
your hand, or the wall, or water droplets in humid air ... come along and
pick up the charge and carry it away.
As just one more example, when you scuff your shoes across the living room
carpet and then hurry into the kitchen to zzzapp your sister, you store the
static charge on your body for the whole time between the last scuff and
the zzzapp.
Finally ... storage of charge is exactly the purpose of capacitors.
It's always stored unless it's conducted away. Thus all insulators have & hold a static charge.
an electrostatic negative charge
When there is a sufficiently strong electrostatic charge, it can cause air molecules to ionize, which are then electrically conductive and create a pathway for the discharge of the electrostatic charge.
The strength of the electrostatic force depends on the electric charge. If you have a block of cobalt - or of just about any other material for that matter - you can put a positive charge, a negative charge, or no charge on it; and the charge can be large or small.
charge will be suspended it will not have any direction

when your clothes rub against your skin an electrostatic charge is made.
Charge can also be present on insulators and because these materials do not allow the charge to flow, this is called electrostatic charge

It detects electrostatic charge. (Static electricity).
