When a charged object touches a conductor, the charge on the object will distribute itself across the surface of the conductor due to the repulsion or attraction of like and unlike charges. This process helps to neutralize the charge on the object, resulting in an overall even distribution of charge on the conductor.
When a negatively charged object touches a neutral object, electrons transfer from the negatively charged object to the neutral object, causing the neutral object to gain electrons. This results in the neutral object becoming negatively charged.
Conductors can be charged by conduction (direct contact with a charged object), induction (placing a charged object near the conductor), or friction (rubbing two objects together to transfer charge).
When an object with a negative charge touches another object, electrons may flow from the negatively charged object to the neutral object until they both reach a neutral state. This transfer of electrons can create a temporary flow of electricity between the two objects.
An insulated conductor can be charged by bringing a charged object near it, which causes the charges in the conductor to rearrange. To achieve maximum induction, the conductor must be grounded while the charged object is nearby. This allows charges to flow to or from the ground, enhancing the separation of charges and maximizing the induced charge on the conductor.
When a charged object touches the ground, electrons can flow from the object to the ground or vice versa, depending on the net charge. This equalization of charges with the ground neutralizes the object, causing it to lose its charge.
When a negatively charged object touches a neutral object, electrons transfer from the negatively charged object to the neutral object, causing the neutral object to gain electrons. This results in the neutral object becoming negatively charged.
The negatively charged object will attract electrons in the neutral conductor towards it, causing the electrons to redistribute within the conductor. This redistribution will result in the end of the conductor closest to the negatively charged object becoming slightly negatively charged, while the end farthest from it becomes slightly positively charged. This induces a temporary dipole moment in the neutral conductor.

Induction happens
An insulated conductor can be charged by bringing a charged object near it, which causes the charges in the conductor to rearrange. To achieve maximum induction, the conductor must be grounded while the charged object is nearby. This allows charges to flow to or from the ground, enhancing the separation of charges and maximizing the induced charge on the conductor.
Induction
Attraction
Well the metal would obviously attract a charged particle for its charge less surface. The only possible way would be placing a positively charged object on the other side of the negative charged object such that it could counter effect the coulombian pull on the negative charge due to the metal. To keep the positive charge in place it would need to place it within oppositely charged electronic plates. This needs more amendments but thats another topic. When a charged object touches metal, the end result is usually what is known as a static shock.
negatively charged
It becomes charged. (negatively)
When a charged object touches the ground, electrons can flow from the object to the ground or vice versa, depending on the net charge. This equalization of charges with the ground neutralizes the object, causing it to lose its charge.
