How can an object have a neutral charge if part of the object has a positive and a negative charge?

If the positive and negative charges are equal, then the object has a 'net' neutral charge.


What happenes to the charge of and atom when it gains electrons?

when atoms gain electrons they acquire negative charge


What type of charge do atoms have that gain electrons?

Since electrons are negative, they get a negative charge.


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.


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


The charge an object has when it has lost electrons?

Negative charge!!


What is it called when a object looses its charge?

Negative Charge


What charge does an object gain if it gives electrons?

positive charge


What happens when an object with a negative charge touches anther object?

Depends on the charge (and conductivity) of the "other" object.

Is it true that an object with a positive charge will attract another object with a negative charge?

yes


What kind of charge can move from object to object?

Electrons can move from object to object. Electrons have a negative charge. So if an object is determined to have a positive charge, then some of the electrons have moved from the object to somewhere else. Something with a neutral charge has the same number of electrons [-] and protons [+]. If electrons [-] leave, then there will be more protons, and a net positive charge. If an object gains electrons, then the object has a net negative charge.
