Nothing happens. The gold leaves just
continue to hang there limply.
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.
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 uncharged materials come in contact with a charged material, some of the electrons from the charged material can move to the uncharged material through a process called charging by induction. The distribution of electrons in both materials can become more balanced, leading to a decrease in the overall charge of the initially charged material.
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.
there is an electric shock when the charge transfers

It becomes charged. (negatively)
You get an electric shock and this happens because the electroscope is charged and your body is good conductor of electricity.

The distribution of electrons in both materials can become more balanced, leading to a decrease in the overall charge of the initially charged material.
An uncharged object can appear charged without charge transfer due to induction. When a charged object is brought near the uncharged object, it causes the charges within the uncharged object to rearrange temporarily, leading to an apparent charge on the surface. This is known as electrostatic induction.
the electric-charge interaction occurs when a''charge'' object is near another ''charge'' or ''uncharde''object
They hang limp.

well if two bodies negatively charged are brought near each other, then there is a strong force of repulsion, as the electrostatic lines of forces terminate at these bodies, they exert later pressure on each other, hence the bodies repeal each other
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.
