They acquire a charge from somewhere else.
These are electrically positive objects.
An object with equal amounts of positive and negative charge is electrically neutral.
by gaining or losing electrons.
Insulators
When an atom or group of atoms becomes electrically charged, it is referred to as an ion. If it has a positive charge (+) it is called a cation, and if it has a negative charge (-), it is called an anion.
Objects become charged when electrons move from object to another
When the total charge on an object is zero, the object is electrically neutral. This means it has an equal number of positive and negative charges, resulting in no overall charge.
Yes. Atoms have protons (positive charges) and electrons (negative charges). However, quite often it is the negative charges (the electrons) that carry the current. In any case, the net charge in a conductor is usually zero (it is neutral) - the electrons simply go in one end and out the other, but the total number of electrons will doesn't change in normal circumstances, whether there is a current or not.
A neutral charge means that the object has an equal number of protons and electrons, resulting in a balanced electrical state. A negative charge means that the object has an excess of electrons, leading to an overall negative electrical charge. Objects with a negative charge can attract positively charged objects and repel other negatively charged objects.

Neon does not have any charge. It is electrically neutral.
