An initially neutral glass rod is rubbed with silk. It becomes positively charged by. a) electrons are created on the rod. b) electrons are transferred from the silk to the rod.
c) protons are transferred from the silk to the rod.
d) protons are transferred from the rod to the silk.
e) electrons are transferred from the rod to the silk.

e) electrons are transferred from the rod to the silk.

Explanation:

An initially neutral glass rod contains equal number of electron and proton.

If the rod becomes positively charged  after being rubbed with silk, then the rod must have lost some its electron to the silk since electrons are more mobile than protons, leaving the rod with excess positive charge (protons), and the silk will be negatively charged (excess electron).

Thus, the rod becomes positively charged by transfer of electrons from rod to the silk.

e) electrons are transferred from the rod to the silk.

true is the correct answer
