Note the atom of the Oxygen is electrically neutral, meaning it has equal numbers of electrons and protons.
So if it gains 2 electrons, it would have excess of 2 electrons, hence its charge would be -2.
Option B.
Answer:
Explanation:
Reducing Sliding Friction. You can reduce the resistive force of sliding friction by applying lubrication between the two surfaces in contact, by using rollers, or by decreasing the normal force
Answer: I don't know this one but I'm just came here for points
Explanation:
There would be more - charges on the peanuts because they gain electrons which are represented with the - sign. There would also be more + on the cat to show that the cat’s fur is positively charged. The peanuts would be attracted to the cat because opposite charges attract.
As for explaining the first model, there should be the same amount of + and - charges on the peanuts as well as the cat to show that it is balanced and the peanuts are not attracted or repelled by the cat.
