A possible ionic charge state distribution of He, C, N, O, Ne, Mg, Si, S and Fe in solar energetic particle events is presented. The number of different ionic orders in the distributions of elements increases with the elemental mass except for He. The correlations between the mean particle intensities for the elements as a function of mean intensities of C in the energy range 2 - 3 MeV per nucleon can be explained in terms of the increase of ionic order number with mass for the elements. The ionic charge states cannot be explained in a model in which the coronal temperature determines a charge equilibrium. It is concluded that ionic charges of solar energetic particles can be produced in a solar flaring region rather than in an interplanetary shock region.
