Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
The electroscope is a scientific instrument used to detect the electric charge on a body. The charge is detected by the movement of a test object due to its Coulomb electrostatic force. The amount of the charge on an object is directly proportional to its voltage. There will be no effect on the aluminium strips if the metal clip used in the electroscope is replaced by an ebonite rod. This is because ebonite is an insulator, and charge cannot be transferred to it.
