Question

A neutral object obtains a charge by gaining 1800 electrons. What is the charge that the object obtains?

Answer 1

Explanation:

If a neutral atom gains electrons, then it will become negatively charged. If a neutral atom loses electrons, then it become positively charged .When an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, the charges cancel each other and the atom is said to be neutral. When two neutral objects come into contact--especially in a dry environment--electrons can be knocked loose from one object and picked up by the other.
