Can the electric charge be created or destroyed?

Solution

  1. The Law of conservation of charge says that the net charge of an isolated system will always remain constant
  2. In other words, the charge can neither be created nor destroyed in an isolated system, but it can be transferred from one body to another.

Hence, the electric charge cannot be created or destroyed
