If you put an electric charge of known magnitude near the object, then it will either be attracted to the charge or repelled away from the charge. They will have the same charge if repulsion is observed or different charges if attraction is observed.

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 is a object that contains more electrons then protons?

This object is negatively charged and it is called an anion.


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.


Why would an object become charged by losing electrons?

When an object loses electrons, it becomes positively charged because it has more protons than electrons. The protons are no longer balanced by an equal number of electrons, resulting in an overall positive charge on the object.


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 if an atom is positively charged?

If an atom is positively charged, it has lost one or more electrons and has more protons than electrons. This results in an overall positive charge due to the unbalanced positive charges from the protons.


What kind of charge does an object that has excess of electrons have?

negative


What would happen to an object if number of protons and electrons are not equal?

If the number of protons and electrons in an object are not equal, it will have a net charge and become an ion. If there are more protons than electrons, the object will have a positive charge; if there are more electrons, it will have a negative charge. This imbalance in charge can lead to interactions with other charged objects.


If an object has more electrons than protons it has what type of charge?

Since protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge, an atom with more protons than electrons would have a positive charge. Note that an atom with this kind of imbalance is known as an ion.


Does Anions have more protons than electrons?

anions have more electrons than protons
