How might you use a balloon with a negative charge to find out whether the charge on another balloon is positive or negative?
If you move a negatively-charged balloon close to another balloon, if it moves towards the first balloon, it is positively-charged. If it moves away, it is negatively charged.
What happens when a balloon with a negative charge is brought to the surface of a wall?
i dont know ask your friends at school. if your old, live with it. A Negative Charge or a collection of negative charges will repel other negative charges. A negatively charged balloon will therefore repel those few negative charges in a wall that are capable of moving a little bit. That area of the wall close to the negatively charged balloon will therefore become positively charged. A positively charged wall will attract a negatively charged balloon and the two will stick together.
What happens to neutrall charge object if it gains electrons?
negatively charged
Why a balloon now negatively charged?
When you rub a balloon onto your hair or piece of clothing, the balloon collects the electrons (negative charge) from the hair or clothing you rubbed it on. The balloon now has more electrons (negative charge) than protons (positive charge) making it have a negative charge. The hair or clothing has more protons than electrons making it have a positive charge.
What happens to an atom's overall charge if it gains an electron?
since an electron is negatively charged, adding an electron to an atom will cause it to become negatively charged.
Is lighting negatively charged or positively charged?
Negatively charge
What is negatively charged?
A negative charge is the opposite of an ion. An Ion with a negative charge becomes an Anion. Normally with a negative charge they are called Electrons. See electrons for more help
Are electrons positively charged or negatively?
Negatively charged
What a neutral atom gains electrons what happens to the atoms overall charge?
It becomes negatively charged.
Why doesn't a compass seem to be affected by a negatively-charged balloon?
The compass would only be affected by a magnetic field. The charge on the balloon would not create the field unless there was a current flow. The charge on the balloon is called "static" because it doesn't flow.
Do electrons have a Negative Charge or a positive charge?
They are ALWAYS negatively charged. If positively charged it would be a positron and not an electron.
What happens to a material which gains electrons?
It becomes more negatively charged, since electrons carry a negative charge.
