How does matter become charged?
Matter becomes charged by electric charges, static electricity and an electric field.
How does an object becomes charged?
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.
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.
An atom that has lost or gained electrons is an?
an ion
What happens when charging by rubbing?
Static electricity is the result of creating a charge by rubbing two objects together. The positively charged objected with accepted electrons from the negatively charged item giving it an electric charge.
When electrons are rearranged in an object by an electric field the object is charged by what?
electron rearrangement is caused by the force exerted on the electrons by the oscillating charges of the field. so in a way the rearrangement is caused by the charges of the field
What gives matter a charge?
Matter becomes charged when it loses or gains electrons. When an atom is neutral (no charge) it has an equal number of protons and electrons. But when it loses electrons, it becomes positively charged. When it gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged. Hope I helped! :)
What happens to an object's atoms when the object becomes positively charged.?
They lose electrons.
What happens to a material which gains electrons?
It becomes more negatively charged, since electrons carry a negative charge.
A cat becomes negatively charged when it's brushed. How does the electric charge on the brush compare to the charge on the cat?
An object becomes negatively charged when electrons are transferred to it from another object it comes in contact with that has a higher negative charge. Therefore, the brush must have more a electrons than the cat and a higher negative charge.
Which force is contain in between nucleus and electrons?
Protons are +1 charged and electrons are -1 charged. This is an electric force
When an object gains or loses electrons has it an electric 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.

How does an object becomes charged?

What are the charged particles that carry an electric charge?
electrons
Negatively charged electric particles in an atom?
electrons
What happens to an element if it becomes a cation?
Cations are formed when elements lose electrons. Then they get positively charged.
