What is the imbalance of protons and electrons on an object?
If it is a neutral atom, then yes. However, if it has gained an electron, it is called an anion, and it is negatively charged. If it has lost an electron, it is called a cation, and it is positively charged.
Why do some charged objects pull each other while other charged objects push each other?
The charged object may induce a separation of charges in the neutral object.The charged object may induce a separation of charges in the neutral object.The charged object may induce a separation of charges in the neutral object.The charged object may induce a separation of charges in the neutral object.
What is a neutral?
An object is neutral when it is not positively or negatively charged. All atomsare neutral. This is because all atoms have equal numbers of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons, leading to overall neutral charge.
What is the meaning of positively charged?
In the absolute sense, something that is 'positively charged' has more protons than electrons (normally an object has equal numbers of protons and electrons and, therefore, is neutral). However, an object can also be described as being 'positive' in the relative sense. For example, we often describe an object as being 'positive' (in comparison with another object) when it is actually negatively charged, but is 'less negative' than that other object. For example, in the case of a simple cell, both the copper and zinc electrodes are actually negatively charged; however, the copper electrode, being 'less negatively charged' than the zinc, is referred to as being the 'positive electrode'.
What is the overall charge when an atom has more protons than electrons?
It has a positive charge.
What are subatomic particle will attracted by a positively charged object?
Protons and electrons but strong forces keep them apart
Is an object that is positively charged contains all proton and no electron?
No that is wrong. that compound has more protons than electrons.
What is an object that is positively charge?
If an object has an unequal number of protons and electrons, then the object becomes electrically charged. An object that is positively charged has more protons than electrons.
What happens to an object to make it positively charged?
I think that a positively charged object can not attract one another
What is the imbalance of protons and electrons on an object?

What is a positively charged object?
It will repel other positively charged entities and attract all negatively charged entities.
An object becomes positively charged if it?
Its number of Protons is more than Electrons
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.
Does an object which is positively charged contains all protons and no electrons?
No; at least, not necessarily. To be positively charged, and object simply needs to contain *more* protons than electrons. Inversely, the same is true of negatively charged objects, which only need to have more electrons than protons.
What kind of charge does an object have if it has more protons than electrons?
The " object " would have a positive charge because protons are positively charged./
What does it mean when an object is charged?
When an object is charged, it either has a surplus or deficiency of electrons. If it has a surplus, the object is negatively charged, and if it has a deficiency, then it is positively charged (has more protons than electrons).
Why must a positively charged body have a deficiency of protons?
It doesn't. A positively charged body is deficient in electrons. In an uncharged object there are equal numbers of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. Removing electrons will leave more protons than electrons, so the object will be positively charged. Such an object is said to have a deficiency or electrons rather than a surplus of electrons because it is generally easier to remove electrons than it is to add protons. Electrons occupy the outer shells of an atom and have a much lower mass than protons. The protons, by contrast, are bound together in the dense nucleus.
