The leather jacket has a lower tendency to attract electrons than the sweater.
Explanation:
The sweater and the leather jackets are made up of distinct fabrics that based on their minutest particles called an atom.
An atom is made up of sub-atomic particles of protons, neutrons and electrons.
Electrons occupies the bulk volume of the atom and they are easily lost in atoms that are big. They are negatively charged.
Protons are positively charged and are very difficult to lose. They occupy the tiny nucleus with neutrons.
A body that becomes negatively charged will be said to have a hihg tendency to attract electrons. Normally atoms are electrically neutral. When additional electrons are added to them, they become negatively charged.
In this case, the sweater has a high affinity for electrons and it will attract the ones on the leather jacket.
The leather jacket has a low tendency to attract electrons than the sweater and it will lose some of its electrons to the sweater.
Ionic bonds form when a nonmetal and a metal exchange electrons, while covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals. An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions.
