Answer:
Explanation:
Option c) The water attracts the pencil.
Pencils are though formed of wood that acts as a bad conductor of electricity, quite strangely pencils can be electrically charged.
Here pencils have non-metal carbons present in its graphite tip and this makes the pencils charged.
When this pencil is held near the water of the tap, the hydrogen ions get attracted and thereby the water gets attracted to the pencil.
Water, however, is an excellent conductor of electricity and therefore water and electricity are a dangerous combination.
