O2 is a diatomic element(as are H, N, F, Cl, Br & I), I believe the charge for O2 is (2-), H=1+, N=3-, F-I=1-
peroxide has a -2 charge but if it isn't in a compound and exists only as O2 it has no charge. Rule 1 of assigning oxidization states : an atom in an element is zero Source: AP Chem text book
Zero. Compounds have no charge.
No
Sulfur dioxide, a neutral molecule.
No. Carbon Dioxide is covalently bonded, so there are no delocalised(free moving) electrons to carry the charge.
Carbonic acid is a neutral molecule. However, carbonic acid is unstable and often dissociates into a proton (which is donated to a base) and bicarbonate, which has a charge of -1. Loss of the other proton yields carbonate, which has a charge of -2.
I don't think sulfur has a charge since sulfur dioxide is a covalent bond. In covalent bonding no charge is produced because its between two nonmetals which share electrons. Since neither atom gains or loses electrons, the protons and electrons are balanced, producing no charge. In response to the answer above, I would first as a question. First by "charge" I assume you are referring to the oxidation number? If so, then you have to look at the charges on each of the atoms present in the molecule! First, oxygen has a -2 charge for each atom. Since Sulfur dioxide has TWO oxygens each oxygen has a -2 charge meaning that there is a total -4 charge for the two oxygens. Since sulfur dioxide doesn't have a charge on the molecule, all the charges for all the atoms must add up to 0. The oxygens already have a -4 charge which means that the sulfur has a +4 charge! Of course all of this is in reference to oxidation numbers. I'm thinking the first person to post might have been confusing the charge on the molecule with the oxidation numbers of each of the atoms?
It has a charge or 2.
No
Carbon dioxide is a neutral molecule. Cations have a positive (+) charge, anions have a negative charge
Carbonated
Sulfur dioxide, a neutral molecule.
aerate - to charge with Carbon Dioxide.
No. Carbon Dioxide is covalently bonded, so there are no delocalised(free moving) electrons to carry the charge.

chlorophyll inside the leaves, carbon dioxide + water = glucose + oxygen
Yes: An oxide ion has a charge of -2. Two of them have a combined charge of -4, which is exactly neutralized by a manganese (IV) cation.
Titanium dioxide, TiO2, is a neutral compound. Each oxygen is in the O2- oxidation state, and titanium is in the Ti4+ oxidation state.
