I know that hydrogen gas, oxygen, and nitrogen gas have zero charge. but does Br2 has zero charge as well??

zero charge.
Example, H2, O2, N2, Br2 - all have 0 charge because there's only 1 atom bonded to another.
But if you're saying H20(water), H then has a charge of +1, and O has a charge of -2 in this compound. Adds up together, the compound has 0 charge. Another example, BrS04(Barium Sulphate), Br has a charge of +2, S has a charge of +4, O has a charge of -2, adds up equals to 0 charge again.

Yes. All molecules have zero net charge. Charges are only observed in solution or the vapour phase under certain conditions, and for every positive species there is a corresponding negative one.

Any two identical atoms bonded together must have equal, and zero, charge.
