Selenium, when forming an ion, gains two electrons. The name of the anion is Selenide, and it has a -2 charge. I found this by looking at the Periodic Table. Find Selenium, number 34, and you can see that two spaces to its right is a noble gas. This means is gains two electrons when forming an ion. I hope I helped.

What is the normal ionic charge for selenium?
-2
What is the charge on the ion that selenium form ionic compound?
selenium has a -2 charge. when it forms a compound with another atom the charge of the compound should be zero unless it has a cahrge in its equation. when compounds form they try to be in the most stable state which is when all their valance elctrons are full which means the charge is zero.
