Electric charge is the physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field. There are two types of electric charges: positiveand negative. Positively charged substances are repelled from other positively charged substances, but attracted to negatively charged substances; negatively charged substances are repelled from negative and attracted to positive. An object is negatively charged if it has an excess of electrons, and is otherwise positively charged or uncharged. The SI derived unit of electric charge is the coulomb (C), although in electrical engineering it is also common to use the ampere-hour (Ah), and in chemistry it is common to use the elementary charge (e) as a unit. The symbol Q is often used to denote charge. The early knowledge of how charged substances interact is now called classical electrodynamics, and is still very accurate if quantum effects do not need to be considered.
The electric charge is a fundamental conserved property of some subatomic particles, which determines their electromagnetic interaction. Electrically charged matter is influenced by, and produces, electromagnetic fields. The interaction between a moving charge and an electromagnetic field is the source of the electromagnetic force

When the total charge on an object is zero the object is electrically what?
The object with zero charge is electrically neutral.
Explain How electrically neutral objects can become electrically charge even though charge Cannot be created or destroyed.?
They acquire a charge from somewhere else.
Does neon have to charge?
Neon does not have any charge. It is electrically neutral.
Is a neutron negativaly charged?
No; the name "neutron" is derived from its elecrical charge, which is zero (i.e., it is electrically neutral).No; the name "neutron" is derived from its elecrical charge, which is zero (i.e., it is electrically neutral).No; the name "neutron" is derived from its elecrical charge, which is zero (i.e., it is electrically neutral).No; the name "neutron" is derived from its elecrical charge, which is zero (i.e., it is electrically neutral).
What does the term electrically neutral?
The meaning of electrically neutral is without any electrical charge.
How does an electrically polarized object different from an electrically charged object?
It will still have a electrical charge.
Does neutrons has no electrical charge?
Neutrons are named such because they have no charge and are electrically neutral.
If a electrically uncharged body is contacted by an electrically charged body the uncharged body will?
If an electrically uncharged body is contacted by an electrically charge body then the uncharged body will gain a charge. This is because electricity flows from a higher concentration to a lower concentration and will balance out.
What do neutrons charge have?
Neutrons are electrically neutral, i.e. they have no charge.Protons have positive charge. Electrons have negative charge.
What is a neutrons electric charge?
A neutron does not have an electrical charge. It is electrically neutral, hence its name.
What is an atomic particle that has no charge or is electrically neutral?
a neutron
How can you charge an object electrically?
Hook it up to a battery.
