Asilver coin rubs vigorously against a wool cloth. the cloth becomes positively charged. which statements are true?
the silver coin lost electrons.
the silver coin gained electrons.
the wool cloth lost electrons.
the wool cloth gained protons.
the wool cloth lost protons.

Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An atom which gains electrons becomes negatively charged and an atom that donates electrons become positively charged.

Therefore, when we rub a silver coin against a wool cloth then cloth becomes positively charged this means that the cloth has lost electrons and the silver coin has gained electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement silver coin gained electrons is true.

Option B and C are correct

Explanation:

It is given that on rubbing silver coin against woolen cloth, the cloth becomes positively charged. A cloth getting positively charged means that it has lost electrons as electrons are negatively charged particles.

On the other hand, a silver coin will gain this negatively charged electron from the wool cloth and thus become negatively charged as in the process of rubbing the static electricity is produced and if one substance get positively charged, the other one will become negatively charged.

Hence, both option B and C are correct

i am going to guess that it is co2.
