Because the electron is a particle with an electrical negative charge.
No, atoms are not normally negatively charged. They are typically electrically neutral, meaning they have an equal number of protons (positively charged particles) and electrons (negatively charged particles). It is possible for atoms or molecules to gain or lose electrons and become positively or negatively charged, but this is not the usual state.
you will get shocked and it will probaly hurt
you add or take away electrons
The atom becomes an ion. Also, A positively charged atom is called a Proton A Negatively charged atom is called a Electron
a negative ion... this was Ben McClanahan for you A+ people out there :))
It depends on what the rod is made of. For example, if it's a glass rod the glass will lose electrons to the nylon and become positively charged, and the nylon will gain electrons and become negatively charged. If the rod is made of aluminum or steel, the rod will gain electrons from the nylon and become negatively charged, and the nylon will become positively charged.
if some of the positive charges have been either chemically removed or bonded together, that is how they become negatively charged...................... xoxo
Atoms become positively charged when they have a deficit of electrons. Similarly, they become negatively charged when they have a surplus of electrons. Neutral charge, the non-ionized state, is when the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons.
To become negatively charged, an object must gain electrons from another object
Your creation of friction with the floor will allow you to "collect" electrons. You'll become negatively charged, and this static charge can discharge to a door knob. Most of us are familiar with the phenomenon. The results can be shocking.
Gaining or losing electrons can cause an atom to become positively or negatively charged
If the atom was neutral, it becomes an anion. Since electrons have a (-) charge
It becomes negatively charged because Wool readily gives away its electrons.
It becomes more negatively charged, since electrons carry a negative charge.
Since electrons are negatively charged, a nonmetal which gains an electron will also become negatively charged.

Metals lose electrons to become positively charged but stable. The electrons they lose are accepted by the non-metal to become negatively charged but stable.
