### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Atoms**: Every object is made up of atoms. Atoms consist of three main components: electrons, protons, and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus, while electrons move around the nucleus. 2. **Charge Balance**: In a neutral atom, the number of protons (which have a positive charge) is equal to the number of electrons (which have a negative charge). This balance results in a total charge of zero. 3. **Condition for Negative Charge**: An object is said to be negatively charged when it has more electrons than protons. This imbalance creates a net negative charge. ...
