Beryllium in ionic form has a charge of +2. Thiocyanate is a polyatomic ion with a charge of -1. Since ionic compounds like beryllium thiocyanate are neutral, the positively charged ions (cations) and the negatively charged ions (anions) must balance---two -1 anions to balance out the +2 cation.

Be2+ + 2 SCN- ---> Be(SCN)2
