No, the opposite would happen. The two bodies would be repelled.

What is a chemical bond and how is it created?

There are several types of chemical bonds. An ionic bond, for example is when two elements have opposite charges are attracted to each other. A positive and a negative charge or a negative and a positive charge can be attracted to each other. If a positive and a positive are attracted to each other or a negative and a negative are attracted, that's considered an immoral bond.


What kind of molecule has two positive atoms attached to a positive atom?

There is no such thing. A positive molecule will only be attracted to a negative molecule.


Can two positively charged body attract each other?

yes--consider two charged bodies (having positive charge). One body is very large in comparison to the other. The large body will induce opposite charge in the small body and thus both will attract each other


How does the direction of the force between two positivily charged objects compare with that between two negatively charged objects?

the two particles would be attracted together. the force of the two particles would, for the most part, depend on coulombs law F=kq1q2/r2 but a general rule for the direction is that likes repel and dislikes attract. a negative sign in this equation is often misunderstood to mean a negative force, but for coulombs law a negative means it repels and positive means it is an attractive force.


A negatively charged object is placed within a positive electric field. what happens to the object?

Electric Field between positive and negative charges. If the Electric Field in which both the positive and negative charges are present is stronger than the Electric Field between the two charges we are talking about, the the negative charge will move away from the positive charge in that positive direction of the field. If not, then the negative charge will get attracted to the positive charge and stay at the position of the positive charge. It will be pulled toward the source of the electric field. (Novanet)

What is in an ionic bond?

In an ionic bond, two ions, or charged particles, are attracted to each other. For example, NaCl (sodium chloride) has a positive particle, Na, and a negative particle, Cl. These two opposites attract and attach.


What are electrical volts?

Volts are a unit of measurement determined by the "electrical pressure" in a circuit, or the potential difference between two charged bodies, say the positive and negative sides of a battery.

What does a charged object do to another charged object?

It depends on what the charge is on both of the objects. If object 'A' is negative and object 'B' is negative, the two will repel or move away from each other. This is the same if both 'A' and 'B' are positive. However, if one is positive and one is negative, then the two will attract, or move closer.


When are hydrogen bonds formed?

Short Answer: a partially positive hydrogen atom gets attracted to a partially negatively charged atom. _______________________ Take water for example. There is an Oxygen atom (which pulls electrons towards it-- making it partially negative) There are also two hydrogen atoms. The (negatively charged) electron on each H atom is being pulled towards the O atom, making the Hydrogen partially positive. Now, when two water molecules come together, the partially positively charged H's on one water molecule are attracted to the partially negatively charged O's on the other molecule. This attraction between oppositely charged atoms on different molecules creates a 'hydrogen bond'.
