1. The conservation of charge means that the total electric charge in a closed system never changes. 2. Charges can move from one place to another, like when you rub a balloon and electrons move to it. 3. However, charges cannot be created or destroyed; the total amount stays the same. 4. So, even if charges move around, the overall charge in the system remains constant. 5. This principle helps us understand how electric charges behave in physics and everyday life.
