Static electricity is a stationary electric charge produced by the accumulation of excess electrons on an object's surface. It is different from current electricity, which is the flow of electric charge through a conductor. Static electricity is commonly generated by friction between two objects.
Rubbing your feet on the carpet generates static electricity, which can result in a buildup of negative charge on your body. When you touch a metal object or another person, the excess electrons can transfer, causing a mild electric shock.
The amount of electrical potential of an object is measured in volts, commonly referred to as voltage. The kind of electrical potential an object has can be either positive or negative, depending on whether it has an excess or a deficiency of electrons.
Static charge, also known as static electricity, can stay in an object when it accumulates due to the movement of electrons between materials, causing an imbalance of positive and negative charges. This charge remains until it is discharged or neutralized by coming into contact with another object or ground.
negative
It has a positive charge.
Electrons can move from object to object. Electrons have a negative charge. So if an object is determined to have a positive charge, then some of the electrons have moved from the object to somewhere else. Something with a neutral charge has the same number of electrons [-] and protons [+]. If electrons [-] leave, then there will be more protons, and a net positive charge. If an object gains electrons, then the object has a net negative charge.
negative
The " object " would have a positive charge because protons are positively charged./

A positive charge
anybody who asks the charge of an object is asking if it's electrons are positive or negatively CHARGED
Assuming both were neutral to start, an object which is charged by contact with another object would have the opposite charge to the object with which the charge transfer occurred as charge is a conserved property. An object that loses electrons to another object would become more positive while and object which gains electrons would become more negatively charged. it can be negative, since the electrons are the only ones to move from a charge to the object positive charge does NOT move thus once it gave the electrons, the thing will get a positive charge while the object will be a negative charge pretty much i said it in easier words from the paragraph above ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Since protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge, an atom with more protons than electrons would have a positive charge. Note that an atom with this kind of imbalance is known as an ion.
Electrons have a negative charge.
