The cathode rays were deflected.
J.J. Thomson proposed the "plum pudding" model of the atom, where electrons were embedded in a positively charged sphere, similar to plums in a pudding. This model suggested that the atom was a uniform, positively charged structure with negatively charged electrons scattered throughout.
Negative is more common. Negative charges are on the outsides of the electron shells in an atom. (hydrogen bonding, etc..) Positive charges are in the nucleus. It is possible to transfer positive charges, but I think that requires an explanation of nuclear fission.
In a way, you have answered your own question! All objects that have an electric charge at all have a charge which is either positive or negative. In either case, the charge can be large or small. The charge of the object has a particular value corresponding to a positive number for positive charges and a negative number for negative charges. Objects with no charge, or neutral objects, can be thought of as having an electric charge of zero. So it is easiest to think of the charge of an object as a number of charge units, where that number can be positive, negative or zero. So let's ask a slightly different version of your question: I've heard of positive and negative charges separating in an electric field. What is an example of this happening? Here is an example: A neutral atom of gas, like argon, is sitting in an electric field, and one of its electrons gets knocked off by a charged particle which comes flying by very close to it. The flying charged particle continues on, leaving the knocked off electron behind in the electric field. Now, the argon atom has been separated into two pieces: an argon ion with positive charge, +1 unit, and the knocked-off electron with negative charge, -1 unit. These two oppositely charged objects will separate further in the electric field if that field is strong enough. In fact, several of the particle detectors at Jefferson Lab work via this exact physical process.

There's a trick to this. It's actually a really easy thing to remember so it wont take long for it to stick in your head. Protons - Starts with P. Positive. Protons are the pro's they spread positive energy Neutrons - similar name to its charge, Neutral. think of it like people who aren't positive or negatives. The Neutrals. Electrons - Negative energy, Elect < Electricity. Electricity if you touch it is a bad thing, it reacts to your body negatively. there ya go! :) be a proton.
Thomson described this method. He gave plum pudding model.
You think probable to ions.
I think that magnetism does not have balence
Think about it in science. If you had any atom with only positive charges or just negative charges it is an unstable atom, therfore you can't make anything out of it. They attract like puzzle pieces. To stabalize an object you need an equal amount of positive and negative charges.
positive and negative charges.... there is no other term... unless you want to get technical and describe what is happening in the metals Protons are positive Electrons are negative BTW neutrons are neutral OR You could also be talking about what ^ is talking about those >I think< are called cathodes and anodes
You think probable to "electrically charged"; these are ions with positive or negative charges..
I don't think so
no, i don't think it does.this is beause sodium hydrogencarbonate (which is actually sodium bicarbonate, used for cooking/baking?) is an ionic compound. since sodium has a positive charge, hydrogencarbonate should have a negative charge.at least that's what i think. hope that helps. Hydrogencarbonate has an overall charge of -1, meaning (HCO3)-. This is because (CO3)2- and H+ makes it -1, if you do the math :)
Yep i think so
He had around 10 i think.
Think about what happens when two magnets with a north pole are brought together. Ig becomes harder and harder to bring them together as the distance between them decrease. The last inch seems impossible no matter how hard you try. That's what happens when positive charges are brought together.
