That is a very interesting question. Hydrogen ions are usually represented as H+, but in fact this never exists on its own in chemical systems because it is too small and polarising. For instance, hydrochloric acid is usually represented as H+ and Cl-, but in fact the hydrogen ions are carried by water molecules, forming something like H3O+. However occasionally hydrogen forms the hydride ion, H-, in such compounds as Na+H-. Of course, all charges should be superscripts.

What is the charge of hydroxide?
'-1' It is usually written as 'OH^(-)'. Water (H2O) is in a dynamic equilibrium ; one of the H-O covalent bonds in water breaks to form H2O < == > H^(+) + OH^(-) It produces hydrogen cations (H^(+)) and hydroxide anions (OH^(-)).
What is the charge of AuCl3?
AuCl3, Gold Chloride, is an ionic compound. The total positive charge must equal the total negative charge. Ionic compounds are electrically neutral.
Is barium hydroxide an ionic or molecular compound?
It's ionic because barium has a 2+ charge while the hydroxide has a 1- charge.
Ionic charge of Phosphorus oxide?
The oxides of phosphorus are covalent. There are no ionic charges.
What is the ionic charge for C-12?
The ionic charge of an atom or ion can not be determined from the mass number and atomic number alone, because the ionic charge if any depends on the surplus or deficiency of electrons compared to protons in the atom or ion. Ordinarily, the symbol C-12, with no further modification, indicates a neutral atom, which would have zero ionic charge.
What is the ionic charge of h2o?
The Ionic charge of H2O is 0 because H has a +1 charge and there are two H so it equals +2 and O has a -2 charge. So they balance out to a charge of zero
What is the charge of h2o?
The Ionic charge of H2O is 0 because H has a +1 charge and there are two H so it equals +2 and O has a -2 charge. So they balance out to a charge of zero
What is the ionic charge of phosphite?
Phosphite has an ionic charge of -3.
What is the ionic charge of Californium?
The ionic charge of Californium is 3+.
What is the ionic charge of chlorine in its compounds?
In ionic chlorine compounds, the ionic charge of chlorine is -1.
What is an ionic number?
The ionic number is the positive or negetive charge an element has, such as Lithium has an ionic charge of +1.
H + Br ionic or covalent?
H + Br ionic or covalent
What ionic bond has the greatest ionic character H-Cl H-F H-O H-N?
H-F
What is the ionic charge of carbonic acid?
Zero. A compound will never have a net ionic charge.
What is the total charge of an ionic compound?
The net charge of any ionic compound is zero, in other words, ionic compounds are neutral.
What is the net charge of the ionic compound fluoride?
The net charge of an ionic compound is equivalent to zero.
What is the ionic charge for rubidium?
Rubidium belongs to Alkali metals so its ionic charge is +1.
