The net charge of an object is its what?

An atom is composed of proton (p+) with a charge of +1, neutrons, and electrons (e-) of -1. The net charge of the object is thus sum of the p+ and e-. Net charge can be negative, neutral or positive.


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 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.


A charged object does not affect an object that has no charge?

It depends on the type of non-charged object. If the object is made of conductive material, a charged object will induce a separation of charge in the non-charged object. Its net charge will still be zero. If the object is not conductive, there will be no significant effect.


If a neutral object loses negative charge what will the net force be?

If a neutral object loses negative charge, then all we can say is that the objectwill be positively charged. We don't know anything about force until we knowhow much net positive charge it has, what othercharged object is in theneighborhood, what the size and sign of thatone's charge is, and the distancebetween the two objects.


Which particles moves when an object acquires a net positive or negative charge?

Electrons


Is an object's net charge positive or negative if it loses electrons?

positive


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.


What kind of charge does an object have if it has more negative particles than positive particles?

Net positive.


When an object has a net charge of zero it is described as?

neutral (not sure if there's a different concept that you're looking for here)


How do you find net charge?

The net charge is the total amount of charge that the ion will have. So you will find out the charge of each group and add them all together for the net charge.


What net charge does a sodium atom have?

A sodium atom has a net charge of zero. A sodium ion has a net charge of 1+.
