If you mean tangible objects, these can become charged with static electricity. All objects, including you, have what are known as free electrons mainly on their surface. The rug on your bedroom floor has free electrons on its surface for example.
So if you shuffle across that bedroom floor in leather slippers, your slippers and you will pick up lots of those free electrons on the rug. Now you are charged with excess electrons...more than you'd normally have. You've gained free electrons.
So the next time you touch a faucet or a metal door knob, those excessive electrons on your hand will jump to that faucet or knob because the faucet or knob have relatively fewer electrons than you do. And when you are about to touch that faucet or knob...SNAP...you release a spark of electrons. And you've lost those excess electrons and you're back to normal.

What is the maximum number of electrons that the orbitals can hold all together?
Each orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons.
What happens if you rub a glass rod with a piece of silk and the rod becomes positive?
When you rub a glass rod with a piece of silk, electrons are transferred from the glass to the silk, resulting in the glass rod becoming positively charged due to a deficiency of electrons. The silk, having gained electrons, becomes negatively charged. This process is an example of triboelectric charging, where contact and friction between two materials cause the transfer of charge. As a result, the positively charged glass rod can attract negatively charged objects or repel other positively charged items.
What is created when two or more atoms bond together?
A molecule is created when two or more atoms bond together. This bonding can be either through sharing of electrons (covalent bond) or transfer of electrons (ionic bond).
What type of electricity is produced by rubbing two balloons together?
Static electricity is produced when two balloons are rubbed together. This occurs due to the transfer of electrons from one balloon to the other, creating a build-up of static charge on the surface of the balloons.
When 2 oxygen atoms come together they form what kind of bond?
When two oxygen atoms come together, they form a covalent bond by sharing electrons. Each oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell, and by sharing two pairs of electrons, they can achieve a stable configuration with a full outer shell of 8 electrons.
When you rub two objects together they can what electrons?
When you rub two objects together, they can transfer electrons from one object to another. This can result in one object becoming positively charged (loses electrons) and the other becoming negatively charged (gains electrons).
When you rub two objects together they can what or what electrons?
When you rub two objects together, they can transfer electrons. This is known as the triboelectric effect, where one object loses electrons and becomes positively charged while the other gains electrons and becomes negatively charged.
When you rub two objects together which object is positively charged and negatively charged?
When you rub two objects together, electrons are transferred between the two objects. The object that gains electrons becomes negatively charged, while the object that loses electrons becomes positively charged.
When we rub two objects together so they can or electrons?
When two objects rub against each other, electrons can transfer between the objects due to friction. One object can become positively charged from losing electrons, while the other becomes negatively charged from gaining electrons. This transfer of electrons creates static electricity.
How can friction be useful to us?
When two materials rub together, the loosely held electrons of one material move to the material with the more tightly held electrons.
What two factors affect the amount of static charge produces when you rub two things together?
The amount of static charge produced when you rub two things together is affected by the materials' triboelectric properties (their tendency to gain or lose electrons) and the surface area in contact during rubbing, which influences the transfer of electrons between the materials.
Why dont two objects charge when you rub them together?
When you rub two objects together, electrons are transferred between them. One object gains electrons and becomes negatively charged, while the other loses electrons and becomes positively charged. This transfer of electrons creates an imbalance in charge between the two objects, leading to them having different charges.
What happens when you rub two conductors together?
When you rub two conductors together, you can generate static electricity due to the transfer of electrons between the two materials. This can cause one material to become positively charged and the other to become negatively charged, resulting in potential for a spark or discharge when they come into contact or near each other.
When you rub two objects together they can what or what?
Gain or lose
What do crickets rub together to make their song?
ii Believe They Rub Their Two Wings Together And By That The Wings Produce Music Out Of It !
What will happen if you rub your hands together?
If you rub your two hands together nothing will happen, it will just become a little pale
What is the phase dont have two nickels to rub together?
It means you are broke or do not have any money.... not even "two nickels to rub together"
