Statement I When two charged spheres are connected to each other by thin conducting wire, charge flow from bigger sphere to smaller sphere, if initial charges on them are same.
Statement II Electrostatic energy will be lost in redistribution.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Text Solution

Positive charge flow from higher potential to lower potential and also potential 
for sphere. So, smaller sphere have large potential.
During redistribution of charge, current will flow through the wire. Thus, electrical energy will be lost in the form of heat and light (spark).
