When a glass rod is rubbed with silk, the silk becomes negatively charged. Which of the following explanations best describes th
at is happening? a. Electrons move from silk to glass
b. Electrons move from glass to silk
c. Protons move from silk to glass
d. Protons move from glass to silk
When the glass rod is rub over against the silk, the glass loses the electrons due to the physical contact with the silk and the friction so produced. The surface of the glass becomes positively charged and the surface of the silk becomes negatively charged. As the surface of the glass loses electrons which are accepted by the silk surface.
