What are the kind of electroscope?
metal-leaf and pith-ball
What is a eletroscope?
An electroscope is an early scientific instrument. It is used to detect and measure electricity or an electric charge on a body.
Which instrument can measure static electricity having a potential difference as low as 0.1 volts?
electroscope
What is the use of gold leaf electroscope?
to determine if there is a charge on an object/ body or not and what kind of charge as well.
How could you use a pith ball electroscope to learn which two objects that are made from different materials hold on its electrons more strongly?

Static

Attraction and repulsion?
Attraction and repulsion, in physics means, is when two objects attract and repel one another. For example, an When a negatively charged rod is brought near an electroscope with negatively charged leaves, the leaves will repel. Same goes for when a positively charged rod is brought near an electroscope with positively charged leaves, the leaves will repel. But if a negatively charged rod is brought near an electroscope with positively charged leaves, the leaves will attract. Kind of like opposites attract, and likeness repels.

What do you need for a homemade electroscope?
You can find instructions for making an electroscope in several books. The novel "Pulling Through" by Dean Ing contains an appendix that tells you how to make an electroscope (identical to the one the characters in his story used to measure radioactivity levels from nuclear fallout). I built one of these but found it very tricky (it is very difficult to avoid contamination that allows charge to leak from the plates and this will be true of any homemade electroscope).
Uses of an electroscope?
An electroscope can be used to determine the charge of an object.
What can an electroscope determine?
An electroscope would detect an electrical charge.
What are the types of electroscopes?
The different types of electroscopes are - i. Pith ball electroscope ii.Gold leaf electroscope iii. Needle electroscope
