How is static elecricity discharged?

Static electricity is discharged when the excess electrons on an object move to another object with fewer electrons, creating a balance in the charge between the two objects. This discharge can happen through various means, such as grounding or through a spark when the potential difference between the objects is high enough to overcome the insulating properties of the air.
