Answer:

+3

Explanation:

Let's consider the chemical formula XN. It must be formed by a cation coming from X and an anion coming from N. Nitrogen has only one negative charge: -3. We know, that the sum of the charges of the elements that form a compound is equal to the charge of the compound. considering XN is a neutral compound (charge 0), we can use this information to calculate the charge of X.

X + N = 0

X + (-3) = 0

X = +3
