Sorry I would like to understand the following:
In a neon bulb as discribed in the worksheet static electricity, exercise9 functions as follows, we transfer enough static electricity(in fact electrons) through the 2 wires of the neon bulb and then these electrons are transfered basically to the atoms of neon in the bulb causing them to became ions(charged atoms) . These ions will gather on one electrode creating an excess on one side and then we will have the discharge in form of light to the other electrode. I think, if wrong please correct me.
But what I would like to understand is that on which basis the electrons will choose one side, since the two electrodes are the same and they have not come in contact to somehow loose some of their electrons.
Regards
