A positive charge
Electrons are negatively charged particles. When an object loses electrons, it acquires a positive charge, as there are less negative particles present than before.
A positive charge
positive
The direction of the flow of electric current. In a positive object, electrons flow to it because it has an abscence of negative charge (aka electrons). In a negative object, it has an abundance of negative charge (electrons) so electrons flow away from it.

Electrons
The nucleus of an atom has both electrons and neutrons. An atom that has a positive charge means that the atom has fewer electrons than it has protons.
Electrons have a positive charge and protons have a negative charge. An atom's nucleus is 99.95% of its weight. When an object gains more electrons, it gains a negative charge that over comes the positive charge. This only happens when there are more electrons than protons.
It does not acquire any charge, it looses negative charge (the electrons), so becomes net positive.
when atoms gain electrons they acquire negative charge
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.
That depends entirely on sign of the charge. If the object gains a positive charge, then that means the object as lost electrons, since electrons are negatively charge. If the charge is negative, then the object has gained electrons. It is also possible that the charge was created by a movement in protons, which are positively charged, in which case the object may not have lost or gained electrons.
the object will have neutral charge
When an object has a positive charge, it has a deficiency of electrons.
Negative charge!!
It gains electrons. The only charged particles which can freely move from one object to another are electrons. Electrons have negative charge. So adding electrons gives a negative charge, and removing electrons gives the object a positive charge.
An object becomes positively charged if it loses electrons. This is because electrons have a negative charge, so the less of them there are in an object, the stronger the positive charge is.
positive charge
Assuming both were neutral to start, an object which is charged by contact with another object would have the opposite charge to the object with which the charge transfer occurred as charge is a conserved property. An object that loses electrons to another object would become more positive while and object which gains electrons would become more negatively charged. it can be negative, since the electrons are the only ones to move from a charge to the object positive charge does NOT move thus once it gave the electrons, the thing will get a positive charge while the object will be a negative charge pretty much i said it in easier words from the paragraph above ^^^^^^^^^^^^
