The charge on a sulfate anion is -2.
2-
The formula for sulfate is SO4, and has a net charge of -2. Boron has a charge of +3, so the formula for boron sulfate is B2(SO4)3.
SO2− 4 ( Charge is -2 )
Positive
Ammonium sulfate (NH4)SO4 is a chemical compound and has no electrical charge. It is however made up of ions NH4+ and SO42-
No, sulfate has a negative charge of 2. The formula for sulfate is SO4 2- where "-2" is the charge.
Sulfate ion is SO42-, so the charge is -2.
Sulfate is SO4 with a -2 charge.
BaSO4 is barium as well as a sulfate anion. The overall charge of BaSO4 includes a +2 charge for barium, and a -2 charge for the sulfate anion.
2-
The formula for sulfate is SO4, and has a net charge of -2. Boron has a charge of +3, so the formula for boron sulfate is B2(SO4)3.
SO2− 4 ( Charge is -2 )
The charge on sulphate ions is 2- (SO42-).
copper sulfate is CuSO4 and that in itself is neutral because the anion has a charge of -2 and copper has a charge of +2
The species in question is the sulfate ion, which has a 2- charge. It is thus properly written as SO42-
Positive
Ammonium sulfate (NH4)SO4 is a chemical compound and has no electrical charge. It is however made up of ions NH4+ and SO42-
