Great question;)
Answer:it is neutrally charged because it has the same number of protons(positively charged iona) and electrons(negatively charged ions)
I hope this helps:)
Answer:
the salt is a solute in this instance
4HCl + MnO₂ → MnCl₂ + 2H₂O + Cl₂
2Cl⁻ → Cl₂ + 2e⁻
MnO₂ + 4H⁺ + 2e⁻ → Mn²⁺ + 2H₂O
2Cl⁻ + MnO₂ + 4H⁺ → Cl₂ + Mn²⁺ + 2H₂O
