When a positively charged body is brought close to a gold leaf electroscope, the electrons in the electroscope will be repelled towards the top of the leaves, causing them to diverge. This happens because like charges repel each other, and the positive charge on the body repels the electrons in the electroscope leaves.
When we touch a charged electroscope with our fingers, the excess charge on the electroscope is neutralized by our body, causing the electroscope to discharge and lose its charge. As a result, the leaves of the electroscope will collapse back together.
When an uncharged body is brought in contact with an electroscope, the electroscope will remain unchanged as there is no transfer of charge. The electroscope will continue to show no deflection of the indicator due to the absence of any charge transfer.
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.
If an electroscope is not charged, its leaves will remain in a neutral position, hanging straight down. This is because there is no excess charge to cause the leaves to repel each other and spread apart.
Charge would flow from the charged electroscope to the initially uncharged one, until the charges are equal on both. At that point, the potential on both ends of the wire would be equal, there would be no voltage across the wire, and no more current would flow. Both electroscopes would then be charged, with charge of the same sign, and with half as much charge as the initially-charged one had.
They hang limp.
You get an electric shock and this happens because the electroscope is charged and your body is good conductor of electricity.
