compounds are formed when two ions (charged atoms) bond, in this case ionically. an ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non metal, and those atoms will form cations (positive ions) and anions (negative ions) -respectively.

when a positive and a negative join together, they will cancel out, therefore creating no charge on your ionic compound.
