A ……….. charged object has a deficiency of electrons whereas a ………….. charged object has excess electrons.

• A. positively
• B. negatively

Answer 1

1. When some electrons are taken out of a body, this leads to the deficiency of electrons in that body.
2. The deficiency of electrons in a substance is called a positively charged body.
3. The body in which there is an excess of electrons is called a negatively charged body.

Hence, a positively charged object has a deficiency of electrons whereas a negatively charged object has excess electrons.
