MCQ
What happens when a glass rod is rubbed with silk?
  • Gains protons from silk.
  • B
    Gains electrons from silk.
  • C
    Gives electrons to silk.
  • D
    Gives protons to silk.

Answer

Correct option: A.
Gains protons from silk.

Excess electrons are transferred from glass to silk when a glass rod is rubbed with silk. Hence, the glass rod becomes positive, and silk becomes negative.
