It is known that when a neutral atom gains electrons then it tends to acquire a negative charge.

Whereas when a neutral atom loses electrons then it tends to acquire a positive charge.

Therefore, in the given situation sweater has become negatively charged, that is, it has gained electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that the statements about Jeff’s situation which are true are as follows.

• The sweater has a tendency to attract electrons.

• The leather jacket has a lower tendency to attract electrons than the sweater.
