Answer:
An object gets charged when it's atoms lose or gain an electron to become an ion. For example: ... This means that the fur loses it's electrons to the plastic rod and both objects are now charged. The fur is positively charged because it lost electrons and the rod is negatively charged because it gained electrons.

Answer:
Normally, an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. However, because electrons are found in the outer part of an atom, they will sometimes move from one atom or group of atoms to another. When an atom or group of atoms has more electrons than protons, it is negatively charged. When an atom or group of atoms has more protons than electrons, it is positively charged. An atom or group of atoms that has the same number of protons and electrons is neutrally charged.
