a charged conical conductor looses its charge earlier than a similarly charfed sphere .why?

Hi.
hope u aware about charge distribution .
we know that the sphere have a uniform shape. So if we create the charge on the shere then charge is distributed on uniform shape i.e. the charge is uniformly distributed .
but in case of conical conductor or we say a cone for easily understanding, it is not uniform . when we create a charge on cone then charge is not uniform distributed . the tip of the cone have more charge .ie it have more electric field strength or intensity ,
hence, due this reason, the cone release charge more easily .
thanks for asking
