This is according to my husband ... he says that you'd get energy when you take electrons away, so you'd get 'static ionization' (and you could get a 'shock')... I'm glad you asked, because I didn't know that!

Electrons have a charge of -1 which are usually balanced by protons which have a charge of +1. if something is lacking electrons(has less of them than protons) it will have a positive charge. Likewise, if something has extra electrons, it will have a negative charge.

If u mean lack of electrons when compared to its natural state, then there would be a positive charge on that compound!

You have a lack of negative charges, so the object will be charged positively. If the object is an atom, you have a positive ion

It has a positive charge. Electrons will jump to it as a spark.

Its is said to be charged
it gains positive charge
it has the potential to transfer a electric current

Protons must increase to keep stable??
