By definition, a charge is an imbalance of electrons. If two sources have a balance of electrons, they have a neutral (or no) charge relative to one other -- there is no positive or negative charge. Only in an unbalanced state can one side be said to be positively or negatively charged. In this unbalanced state, the positive and negative charges will attract one another.

I'm assuming that the question refers to a single atom or molecule. If this atom or molecule has an imbalance of charges, it will carry either a positive charge (if the protons outnumber the electrons) or a negative charge (if the electrons are more numerous). It is then referred to as an ion.

When the positive and negative charges in an atom no longer balance, the atom is called an ion. A cation is an ion with more positive charges than negative charges. An anion is an ion with more negative charges than positive charges.

What happens when a charged object is brought to another oppositely charged object?

There will be flow of electrons from negatively charged object towards the positively charged object making an attempt to make both of them electrically neutral.

What happens when positively charged objects and brought near a negatively charged object?

well if you bring a negatively charged object near a positively charged object, they will attract each other, but if you bring two positively charged objects near each other they will repel just like the rule sais: Like Charges repel, Unlike charges attract the closer the charges, the greater force between them


What happens when a charged ebonite rod is brought close to water?

Ebonite rod becomes positively charged and the fur becomes negatively charged. Hold on electrons: Fur > Ebonite rod So, the ebonite rod loses its electrons to the fur and the fur becomes negatively charged.


An object becomes charged when the atoms in the object gain or lose what?

An object becomes charged when the atoms in the object gain or lose? A) protons B) neutrons C) electrons D)All of the above Answer (1) - Wrong My answer is most definitely D) All Of Above Answer (2) - Right A) and B) because if we assume an object to be neutral at first then if we lose a proton (positively charged) the object becomes negatively charged, if we lose an electron (negatively charged) the object becomes positively charged. Neutrons have no net charge (neutrally charged) so if we take on away nothing happens.
