Strictly, all compounds have no charge. What would be a compound if neutral but actually has a charge should properly be called an ion. Some compounds, such as the diatomic molecules of the elements hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine, have perfectly symmetrical covalent bonds without even any polarity. Most covalent bonds between dissimilar atoms have some polarity, as do all ionicly bonded compounds, but this does not mean that the compounds themselves have net electrical charge.

Compounds which have symmetric distribution in charge and are NOT soluble in water?
Hydrophobic compounds are non-polar compounds. This means that they have symmetric distribution in charge, and they are not water soluble.
What is a compound that has a charge?
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+,..
What electric charge do all compounds have?
zero
What does it mean when a solution is being neutral?
true
What is the charge of a Xe ion?
1.what is the oxidation state in xenon in HXeO4- and ... xenon is +7. As= +3 ... Xe = +7. As = +3 ... Except when highly electropositive elements are involved
What is the ionic charge of chlorine in its compounds?
In ionic chlorine compounds, the ionic charge of chlorine is -1.
What is the overall charge of most compounds?
Compounds can be charged by different methods. But naturally most of the compounds are uncharged. So the overall charge of most compounds is neutral.
What type of charge do compounds have-?
By definition, all compounds must have a net electrical charge of 0.
Charge on nitrogen monoxide?
Zero, compounds do not have charge.

What is the ionic charge on chlorine compounds?
The compounds themselves are no charged. The chlorine itself, though, takes on a 1- charge.
Ionic charge of xenon?
Xenon is an inert monoatomic gas. It isone of the "inert" gases It does form some compounds, such as unstable covalent compounds with fluorine. It does not form compounds containing Xe ions.
What charge do all compounds have?
zero
What is the ionic charge of oxide in its compounds?
Oxide ions have a charge of -2.
What kind of charge do ionic compounds have?
positive
What electric charge do all compounds have?
zero
