Static electricity is an imbalance of electric charges within or on the surface of a material. The charge remains until it is able to move away by means of an electric current or electrical discharge. Static electricity is named in contrast with current electricity, which flows through wires or other conductors and transmits energy.[1]
A static electric charge is created whenever two surfaces contact and separate, and at least one of the surfaces has a high resistance to electrical current (and is therefore an electrical insulator). The effects of static electricity are familiar to most people because people can feel, hear, and even see the spark as the excess charge is neutralized when brought close to a large electrical conductor (for example, a path to ground), or a region with an excess charge of the opposite polarity (positive or negative). The familiar phenomenon of a static shock-more specifically, an electrostatic discharge-is caused by the neutralization of charge.
Hope this helped as i am spoderman.

What happens if a positive ion is attracted to a negative ion?
If a positive ion is attracted to a negative ion, they will come together and form an ionic bond. This bond is formed by the electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions. This bond is typically strong and stable.
What happens if the negatively charged rod is brought close to another negatively charged rod?
they repel remember, opposites attract and likes repel.
What happens when a negative and positively charged ion together?
I cannot answer this question.
What is attraction between two oppositely changed ions called?
The attraction between two oppositely charged ions is called ionic bond. This happens when one atom gives up an electron (forming a positive ion) and another atom gains that electron (forming a negative ion), resulting in an electrostatic attraction between them.
What happens when the north pole of the magnet is brought near the south pole of a freely suspended magnet?
Get attracted and stick on together
When charged objects are brought close together explain what happens?
Charged objects can either attract or repel each other depending on the types of charges they carry. Oppositely charged objects will attract each other, while similarly charged objects will repel each other due to the interaction of electric fields.
What happens when a charged object is brought to another oppositely charged object?
When a charged object is brought close to another oppositely charged object, they will experience an attractive force due to the difference in charge. If they are allowed to come into contact, electrons will transfer from the negatively charged object to the positively charged object until they reach equilibrium in charge distribution. This transfer of electrons will neutralize the objects.
What happens when two positively charged objects are brought together?
what happens when 2 positive charges interact
What happens when 2 charged balloons are brought close together?
When two charged balloons are brought close together, they will either repel each other if they have like charges or attract each other if they have opposite charges. This is due to the electrostatic force between the charges on the balloons.
What can happen when an charged object can be brought near an charged object?
Induction happens
What happens when a negatively charged objects and a positively charged object are brought together?
When a negatively charged object and a positively charged object are brought together, they will attract each other due to their opposite charges. Electrons from the negatively charged object will move towards the positively charged object, equalizing the charge distribution between the two objects. This exchange of electrons will cause the objects to neutralize each other's charge.
What happens when you rub a balloon on your hair?
When you rub a balloon on your hair, the balloon becomes charged with static electricity. This causes the hair to stick to the balloon due to the attraction between the charged balloon and the oppositely charged hair.
What happens if a positive ion is attracted to a negative ion?
If a positive ion is attracted to a negative ion, they will come together and form an ionic bond. This bond is formed by the electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions. This bond is typically strong and stable.
What happens when you separate a non metal and a metal?
Let us see with sodium chloride. NaCl separate in solution Na+ and Cl- two oppositely charged ions are the result
What happens if the negatively charged rod is brought close to another negatively charged rod?
they repel remember, opposites attract and likes repel.
What happens if you put two positively charged balloons together?
They Repel.
What happens when a negative and positively charged ion together?
I cannot answer this question.
