What object has charge if it has positive charge?

An object with a positive charge has an excess of protons compared to electrons.


When an object loses electrons it acquires an electric charge of?

It does not acquire any charge, it looses negative charge (the electrons), so becomes net positive.


A shortage of electrons on surfaces create what kind of charge?

A shortage of electrons on the surface create positive charge. Because aall bodies in nature remains electrically neutral. But we know that electrons are negatively charged particles. It means if there is deficiency of electrons at any surface there would be positive charge. Which means electrons are less than protons which are positively charged particles and hence causes positive charge on surface.


Is there any negative charge on a positive charged object?

Any "object" larger than elementary particles consists of positive and negative charges. If your object has a negative charge, it simply has more particles with a negative charge than particles with a positive charge.


Do neutrons contribute to the charge of the nucleus?

no. they are neutral/ no charge either positive or negative. the Protons are what charge the nucleus.


An ion is an element that has a what charge?

An ion is an atom of any element that either has a positive or negative charge.


What is true about an electric field around a positive charge?

It will be directed away from the positive charge. It will attract any other negative charge and repel any positive charge. Its magnitude is given by E= KQ/R where K = 9x 109 C2m-2N-1 Q is the charge producing field R is the point where electric field is to be calculated


Where are protons found in an atom that do not have any charge called?

All protons have positive charge and are always found in the nucleus of an atom. There are no protons without any charge.


Is a neutron a negative or positive?

Neutrons don't have any electrical charge.


The shock syndrome results from many causes such as hemorrhage spinal injury or embolism the common denominator of any shock state is?

What charge does the nucleus of an atom hold?

The nucleus of an atom carries a positive charge. This positive charge is due to the presence of protons in the nucleus. Electrons, which are negatively charged, orbit around the nucleus to balance out the overall charge of the atom.


What does the nucleas of the atom contain?

The nucleus contains protons (which carry a positive charge) and neutrons (which do not carry any charge)
