Question

Cause of positive charge on a body is an excess of electrons.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Cause of $(+Ve)$ on a body is an excess of electron. This is statement is false. According to atomic theory, deficiency of electrons, the prime focus in $(+Ve)$ charge proton becomes excess.

Let, us take an example sodium becomes ${Na}^{+}$.

How does it possible?

When $1$ valence electron leaves, the protons in the nucleus are same as eleven. That is why, positive charge on a body like $Na$ will be a accumulated when valance electron leaves not excess of electrons.
