How many positive charges does argon atom have?

Argon is usually electrically neutral and has no charge. It is possible to ionize it, however (at very high temperatures or by means of a high voltage) at which point it would have a positive charge.


Why does argon not form ions?

Atoms become ions by gaining or losing electrons to achieve a noble gas configuration of electrons, which is stable. Argon already has such a configuration and is very stable as it is. Any gain or loss of electrons would make it less stable.
