The compound gauge is an instrument to measure pressures, positive or negative.
The total positive charge of an ionic compound equally balances the total negative charge; therefore, the ionic compound is electrically neutral.
false
This compound is of course neutral.
Plutonium is a radioactive element with no inherent positive or negative charge. It can exist in different oxidation states, which can determine its overall charge in a chemical compound.
oxidation number
Positive oxidation numbers are assigned to elements that lose electrons in a compound, while negative oxidation numbers are assigned to elements that gain electrons. The oxidation number is determined by the number of electrons gained or lost in forming the compound. The sum of oxidation numbers in a compound is always zero for a neutral compound, or equal to the charge of the ion in an ionic compound.
it is always equal to zero.The overall charge of a formula unit for an ionic compound is zero. The numbers of positive and negative ions are such that the sum of the positive charges and the negative charges is zero.

Yes
When the positive ion of a base combines with the negative ion of an acid, they form a salt compound. The positive ion from the base combines with the negative ion from the acid through an ionic bond to create a neutral compound known as a salt.
The formula for an ionic compound is expressed in terms of the ratio of the positive and negative ions that make up the compound. This ratio ensures that the overall charge of the compound is neutral. It is typically written using the symbol of the cation followed by the symbol of the anion.
A compound with positive and negative charges is called an ionic compound. Ionic compounds are formed when a metal (which typically forms positive ions) reacts with a non-metal (which typically forms negative ions), resulting in an exchange of electrons to achieve stability.
When combining (adding) two negatives you get a negative. When multiplying two negatives you will get a positive.
The total positive charge of an ionic compound equally balances the total negative charge; therefore, the ionic compound is electrically neutral.
This reaction is called a double displacement reaction, in which the positive ions or cations of two different compounds switch places, forming two new compounds.
Ionic compounds are neutral because they have an equal number of positive and negative charges. In a crystal lattice structure, the positive and negative ions are arranged in such a way that overall the compound has no net charge. This balance of positive and negative charges is what makes the compound stable.
