Answer 2

Following statements are true
(i) The leather jacket has a lower tendency to attract electrons than sweater.
When the sweater and the leather jacket are in contact with each other, the leather jacket loses electrons and thus becomes positively charged. the electrons are gained by the sweater and it becomes negatively charges.
The opposite charge attract. so the sweater ( negatively charged) will attract protons ( positively charged) . The leather jacket ( positively charged) will attract the electrons ( negatively charged).
