Electron Chart: Finding Charging Ease of Objects

[butz3]

elctron chart?

does anybody know what the cart is that you look up if its takes or gives up electrons easily. you know for objects like ebonite rod, and fur. i printed it of the internet awaile ago and i can't find it so i would like to print it but i don't remember what it is called. thanks

I believe what you might be looking for is a table of electronegativities.
Generally that's just a Periodic table that includes the electronegativities of the different elements.

For things like an ebonite rod, or fur etc... I'm not too sure

The chart you are referring to is called the "Electron Affinity Chart" or "Electron Affinity Table." It is used to determine the ease with which an element or object can gain or lose electrons. This information is important in understanding the reactivity of elements and their ability to form compounds. I suggest searching for the chart online or checking with your science teacher or textbook for a copy.
