Answer;
The overall or total charge becomes neutral, that is the total charge is Zero.
Explanation;
- Ionic compounds are compounds composed of ions, charged particles that form when an atom gains or loses electrons. The charged particles are the positively charged ion known as cations and the negatively charged ion known as anions.
- The overall or the total charge for the ionic compound must be neutral. This means that the sum of the charges from the cations and anions should add up to zero.
