Amber rubbed with fur gains electrons, so the amber ends up:

ANegatively charged
BPositively charged
CPerfectly neutral
DPartially melted
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Negatively charged
1. Electrons carry negative charge. 2. Gaining them leaves a surplus of negative charge. 3. So the amber is negatively charged. _Source: OpenStax University Physics Volume 2, Chapter 5, Electric Charges and Fields._
