Two charges of Q1 Q2 separated by a small distance satisfy the equation Q1+Q2 = 0 what does it tell about charges

It tell about additivity of charges. Q1 and Q2 are equal and opposite charges.
Four point charges qA = 2 μC, qB = – 5 μC, qc = 2 μC, and qD = –5 μC are located at the corners of a square ABCD of side 10 cm. What is the force on a charge of 1 μC placed at the centre of the square?
Suppose a square ABCD with each side of 10 cm and centre 0. At the centre, the charge of 1 μC is placed.
As qA = qc, the charge of 1 μC experiences equal and opposite forces FA and Fc due to charges qA and qC.
At the same time, the charge 1 μC experiences equal and opposite forces. FB and FD due to equal charges qB and qD at B and D. Thus, the net force on charge of 1 μC due to the given charges is zero.
