A charged rod attracts bits of dry cork dust whichafter touching the rod jump off voilently away from it.y?

Some of the electrons from the charged rod leap into the cork when they touch. When the charges on both items are equal they repel each other. This is because like charges repel while different charges attract.

Why do sellotape is pulled off a roll it is attracted to your hand?
Your hand is positively charged and therefore attracts the negatively charged sellotape.
What is the energy called that attracts the electrons to the nucleus of an atom?
binding energy The attraction force of the positively charged protons in the nucleus binds (holds secure) the negatively charged electrons near the nucleus.
What you the meaning of coordination number?
Its defined as number of spheres touching a given sphere in a solid crystal structure , or its also defined as a number of ions touching a given oppositely charged ions.
When is a hydrogen bond formed?
When a hydrogen bond is formedWhen a partially charged hydrogen atom attracts a partially negatively charged electronegative atom.Not all partially negatively charged electronegative atoms but those having high electronegativity like oxygen (O), Fluorine (F)
How can neutral pollutant particles be made attractive to the charged plate in an electrostatic precipitator?
The positive plate attracts the negative particles to remove them from the gas.
What is changing by contact?
causing a neutral object to become charged by touching it with a charged object.
Why do sellotape is pulled off a roll it is attracted to your hand?
Your hand is positively charged and therefore attracts the negatively charged sellotape.
How do you make negative Charge?
by taking a negatively charged object and touching it with the object that you want to be charged
Is a cathode positive or negative?
A cathode is negative. It attracts cations, which are positively charged.
What type of interaction is there between a charged object and a neutral object?
A charged object attracts the neutral object by polarising it.
What does the magnetosphere attract with its magnetic force?
The Magnetosphere attracts charged particles emitted form the sun.
What is the charge of a cathode and how do you remember it?
The cathode is negatively charged. A good way to remember this is thinking of what it's doing. A cathode attracts cations which are positively charged. In order to attract a positive charge, the charge on the electrode must be oppositely charged. So it has to carry a negative charge. The opposite is true for the anode. Since it attracts anions which are negatively charged, the electrode must carry a positive charge.
A positively charged ion will bond with?
A negative charge attracts a positive charge and repels a negative charge. OPPOSITES ATTRACT ;)
How hydrogen bonds allow water to act as a solvent to dissolve sodium chloride?
since hydrogen is positively charged it attracts the negatively charged chlorine in sodium chloride
What is a difference between Anions Cations?
An anion is a negatively charged ion. A cation is a positively charged ion.Anion gets its name from the fact that anions migrate to the anode (positively charged electrode). Cation gets its name because cations migrate to the cathode (negatively charged electrode). Note, therefore, that the charge on the ion is opposite the charge of the electrode toward which it migrates. (Positive attracts negative and negative attracts positive).
What thing holds protons and electrons in the nucleus?
Electrostatic force of attraction. Ya you know the force that attracts a +ve charged and -ve charged particles towards each other.
Can you say that a charged object attracts an uncharged object by first charging it by induction why or why not?
Cönsider a negatively charged object be placed at a fixed position ,now a neutral or uncharged object is slowly introducing into the field which is produced by the electrons in negatively charged object.... And now according to the law of charges opposite charges attract each other similar thing taking place here the electrons present on the negatively charged object attracts the positive charge in neutral object by separting the charges inside the object wich is called induction as soon as the neutral object enters into the field produce by negatively charged object ...,and then it attracts...
