                                              &nbsp;&gt; &gt; But as you

                                              how can i remove that.<br>
                                              &nbsp;&gt;<br>
                                              &nbsp;&gt; Your statements are

                                              &nbsp;&gt; chloride ions, you

                                              &nbsp; So even if added five
                                              choride ions, the system
                                              charge is not zero. there
                                              was 0.005<br>
                                              <br>
                                              &nbsp;that is partial charge??

                                          Maybe, maybe not. &nbsp;Rounding
                                          errors could account for this
                                          difference, especially if your
                                          system is very large. &nbsp;Still,
                                          you should inspect your
                                          topology/topologies for
                                          inconsistencies. &nbsp;If pdb2gmx
                                          created the topology, keep an
                                          eye on the "qtot" column for a
                                          running total of the charge.
                                          &nbsp;If you've made or adjusted
                                          any topologies on your own,
                                          double-check your work. &nbsp;If
                                          everything looks correct, then
