How do objects and atoms gain charge?
A. The protons move around to change charge of an atom/object
B. The neutrons move around to change charge of an atom/object
C. The electrons move around to change charge of an atom/object
D. All of the above
E. False question. The atom/object always have their own charge, nothing moves around to charge them
F. None of the above

Atoms gain charge mainly through the movement of electrons, which can lead to a positive or negative charge depending on whether they lose or gain electrons. Protons and neutrons do not contribute to changes in charge as they remain static in the nucleus. Therefore, the answer is that it is the electrons that move around to change charge. ;
