How can I find the net charge of a molecule?

Answer 1

I adore the query.

It is a fact that all molecules and ionic compounds have a net charge of zero. If you require further information, such as the oxidation states of individual atoms within a molecule, please let me know.

To find the net charge of a molecule, you need to determine the number of protons and electrons in the molecule. Subtract the number of electrons from the number of protons. If the result is positive, the molecule has a net positive charge; if negative, it has a net negative charge; if zero, it is neutral.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
