What else can I help you with?
What happens to the charge of an atom that loses electrons?
it gets positive charge
Why the charge of a nucleus of an atom is positive?
because a proton has a positive charge and a neutron has a neutral charge so the proton's charge is the one that gets named
What is the majority of negative charge on the water molecule?
there has to be a negative charge in the molecule as there is a positive charge. there is a negative charge and when it and a positive charge gets together it forms something that makes the charge neutral
What happens when a negatively charged object is grounded by touching it?
when two charged spheres touched each other,they lose their charge as they want to gain thermal equilibrium.Every body in the universe went to their stable form so the same thing is done by charges
What describes the usual way by which material can gain a positive charge?
Material can gain a positive charge by losing electrons. This can happen through processes such as friction, conduction, or induction, where electrons are transferred from one material to another, resulting in one material having an excess of protons and a positive charge.
How does an object get a neutral charge?
An object gets a neutral charge when it gains or loses an equal number of protons and electrons, balancing out the positive and negative charges. This can happen through processes like friction, conduction, or induction, where electrons are transferred between objects.
What is the net charge of a balloon when it is rubbed on your hair?
When a balloon is rubbed on your hair, electrons are transferred from your hair to the balloon, giving the balloon a negative charge and your hair a positive charge. This results in an overall negative net charge on the balloon.
Ions form when what is transferred between atoms?
Ions form when electrons are transferred between atoms, resulting in a difference in the number of protons and electrons. This creates ions with either a positive charge (cation) or a negative charge (anion) based on the imbalance of electrons.
What charge is released after brushing or combing hair?
When you brush or comb your hair, some of the electrons from the hair are transferred to the brush or comb, giving them a negative charge. This leaves your hair with a positive charge, which creates static electricity.
Why do cations bear positive charge?
Cations are formed when an atom loses electron(s). Since there are more positively charged protons than the negatively charged electrons, cations have positive charge.
What things attract static electricity?
Static electricity is when there is either an excess (negative) or lack of (positive) electrons. If electrons are transferred onto another surface, for example by rubbing them together, a positive charge is formed, but if electrons are gained, a negative charge is formed.
What is the build up of a positive or negative electric charge on a materials surface?
A positive or negative electric charge can build up on a material's surface through the gain or loss of electrons. This can occur through processes such as friction, induction, or conduction, where electrons are transferred between materials, resulting in an accumulation of charge.
