    Answer: it doesn't have a charge

    Explanation:

    When hydrogen and oxygen combine to make water, it doesn't have a charge because all of the electrons are neutralized

    Answer: The formal charge on hydrogen is calculated as follows. Hydrogen has one valence electron (GN = 1), no unshared electrons (UE = 0) and two shared electrons in the oxygen-hydrogen covalent bond (BE = 2). Thus the calculated formal charge on hydrogen is zero.
