The most common charge (or valency) is -2. But there are compounds formed by elements of group VIA with valency from -2 to +6
you wud find 2-
2-
by subtracting 8 from the group number. this was answer by a Sone.
Barium forms a +2 charge, along with all other group 2 metals.
A Polyatomic ion is a covalently bonded group of atoms that has a positive or negative charge and acts as a unit
A polyatomic ion is held together by covalent bonds between atoms. They can be either positive or negative. For example, the ammonium ion, NH4+, has a positive charge, and the sulfate ion, SO42-, has a negative charge.
An atom with a -1 charge is a negatively charge ion (anion) and has has one more electron than it has protons. The most common -1 ions are the halide ions.
An ion is an atom (or group of atoms) with an electrical charge.
Sodium is in group one, chlorine in group 7. This means that a Sodium ion has a charge of +1, and a Chlorine ion has a charge of -1.
What charge would you find on a Group 2 ion?
Potassium is a group 1 element, so it will form a 1+ ion.
The chlorine ion is in group 7 so it has a charge of -1.
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
It is an ion.

IONS OS ION ^^A charged atom is called an ion

Barium forms a +2 charge, along with all other group 2 metals.
The charge that is usually formed by the elements in group 7A is 1-
