Some compounds have a charge. It depends on the charges of the components of the compound. For example, NO3- has a charge of -1 because the charge of its components are each O is 2- and the N is 5+, creating an overall charge of -1. An example of a neutral compound is NaCl, Na has a charge of 1+ while Cl has a charge of 1-, creating an overall charge of 0.
