Question

Why does a pair of objects get electrified on rubbing on each other?

Answer 1

★ The frictional charging process results in a transfer of electrons between the twoobjects that are rubbed together. Rubber has a much greater attraction for electrons than animal fur. As a result, the atoms of rubber pull electrons from the atoms of animal fur, leaving bothobjects with an imbalance of charge.

Answer 2

When you rub two different insulating materials against each other they become electrically charged. This only works for insulated objects - conductors direct the charge flow to earth. When the materials are rubbed against each other: Negatively charged particles called electrons move from one material to the other.
