Paper is generally considered to be electrically neutral, meaning it has no overall positive or negative charge. However, it can acquire a temporary charge through processes like friction, where it may become positively or negatively charged depending on the materials it comes into contact with. This charging is typically subtle and depends on environmental factors such as humidity.

What is a positively charged subatomic paricle?

A positively charged subatomic particle is a proton. Protons are found within the nucleus of an atom and carry a positive electrical charge.


A negatively charged rubber rod can pick up small neutrally charged pieces of paper by a process called what?

The process by which a negatively charged rubber rod picks up small neutrally charged pieces of paper is called electrostatic induction. When the rod approaches the neutral paper, it causes the electrons in the paper to move away from the rod, creating a positive charge on the side nearest to the rod. This induced positive charge then attracts the negatively charged rod, allowing it to pick up the paper.


Can a negative charged balloon pick up paper?

Yes, a negatively charged balloon can pick up small pieces of paper due to the attraction between the negative charge on the balloon and the positive charge on the paper. This phenomenon is a result of static electricity.


Why are negatively charged amino acids acidic?

Negatively charged amino acids are acidic bacause they gave a proton (H+) to the solution. The amino acid was not charged before it went into the solution, but lost a hydrogen when placed in water and became negativley charged. It also donated a proton to the solution so it is considered acidic. Similar logic applies with the basic amino acids.


How many electrons on chromium?

24, considering that an electron has a negative charge and the number of protons (positivley charged) is 24, an atom has to be neutrally charged

What will happen if a negatively charged rod is brought close to a small plastic ball if the ball is postively charged?

They will attract becuase oppsites attract. If something is positivley charge and the other this is negativley charged they will almost always attract. Hope I helped.

What are the differences between proton and electron?

Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom, while electrons are negatively charged particles that orbit the nucleus. Protons have a much larger mass than electrons. The number of protons in an atom determines its atomic number, while the number of electrons determines its overall charge.
