have a think and consider my previous comment, then re-ask yourself ... Why must it react ?Abdullah Wahid said:

Ion is an atom with net charge due to gain or loss of electrons. When sphere is charged positively, it has lesser electrons than what it had in neutral state, so this means some atoms must habe lost their valance electons.davenn said:I have a feeling you don't know what an ion is ?
describe to me what you think it is
no
A positively charged metal sphere is a spherical object made of a conductive material, such as metal, that has been given a positive charge. This can be achieved through various methods, such as rubbing the sphere with a different material or using a power source to transfer positive charges to the sphere.
The reactivity of a positively charged metal sphere is different from a negatively charged one because positive charges tend to attract negative charges and repel other positive charges. This means that a positively charged sphere will interact differently with other objects than a negatively charged sphere, which tends to attract positive charges and repel negative charges.
Yes, a positively charged metal sphere can lose its charge over time due to a process called discharge. This happens when the positive charges on the sphere are able to flow to a region with fewer positive charges, such as the ground or a negatively charged object. The rate of discharge depends on factors such as the conductivity of the material and the surrounding environment.
The capacitance of a positively charged metal sphere is the same as a negatively charged one, as it is determined by the size and shape of the sphere and the material it is made of. However, the distribution of charges on the sphere may differ, which can affect the overall capacitance.
A positively charged metal sphere can be used in capacitors as one of the two conductive plates. When connected to a negatively charged plate, it creates an electric field between the two plates, allowing for the storage of electric charge. This is used in various electronic devices, such as cameras, computers, and televisions.
