Grounding-the Removal of a Charge

Grounding is a process of removing a charge from an object. It means that it transfers the electrical charge from an object to the ground making it neutral. Electroscope connected to a conducting pathway to another object that receive electron. This process works because electrons find another electrons. They repel each other. If the electroscope is positive charge, it will the electron from other object. So it’s become neutral.
