An object becomes charged when it has an excess or deficiency in electrons. This can result from rubbing the material with different material (preferably one that has a different electron affinity, meaning it is either more likely to lose electrons or very hard to lose electrons compared to the first material), therefore the electrons flow from one to another, thus giving the materials charges.
What else can I help you with?
Is an electron positively or negatively charged?
An electron is negatively charged.
How do positively charged objects differ from negatively charged objects?
Positively charged objects have an excess of protons compared to electrons, while negatively charged objects have an excess of electrons compared to protons. These imbalances in charge cause positively charged objects to attract negatively charged objects and repel other positively charged objects, and vice versa for negatively charged objects.
What is the formation of positively and negatively charged objects?
Positively charged objects gain electrons to become negatively charged. Negatively charged objects lose electrons to become positively charged. This exchange of electrons creates an imbalance of positive and negative charges, leading to the attraction between the objects.
How does a body become positively charged?
To charge it positively placed a negatively charge body near it. The positive charge of the sphere is attracted near to the surface close to the negatively charge body. To make it completely positive just earth it (by touching it). This process is known as induction. To charge a body negatively is similar to the aforementioned method.
Predict what would happen if you touched the knob of a positively charged electroscope with a negatively charged object?
If you touch the knob of a positively charged electroscope with a negatively charged object, the excess electrons from the negatively charged object will flow to the electroscope, neutralizing the positive charge. The electroscope will become neutral or slightly negatively charged as a result.
Is lighting negatively charged or positively charged?
Negatively charge
Are cathodes positively or negatively charged?
Cathodes are negatively charged.
Is an electron positively or negatively charged?

Are electrophiles positively or negatively charged?
Electrophiles are positively charged.
Is an insulator positively charged or negatively charged?
I believe they'd are positively charged.
Are cations positively or negatively charged?
Cations are positively charged ions.

What is a positively or negativity charged atoms?
An ion is both positively and negatively charged.
How do positively charged objects differ from negatively charged objects?
Positively charged objects have an excess of protons compared to electrons, while negatively charged objects have an excess of electrons compared to protons. These imbalances in charge cause positively charged objects to attract negatively charged objects and repel other positively charged objects, and vice versa for negatively charged objects.
Does every atom have a negatively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons?
No. Every atom has a positively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons.Unless you are talking about antimatter. The atoms of antimatter have negatively charged nuclei and surrounded by positively charged positrons
What is the formation of positively and negatively charged objects?
Positively charged objects gain electrons to become negatively charged. Negatively charged objects lose electrons to become positively charged. This exchange of electrons creates an imbalance of positive and negative charges, leading to the attraction between the objects.
Is an ion is a charged particle?
yes. negatively charged ion is called cation and where as a positively charged ion is anion.
