Atoms have equal # of protons(+) and electrons (-). Hence the atom has zero charge.
If we consider just the nucleus, the charge would be positive because it only consists of protons

In ionic compounds nonmetals lose their valence electrons to form positively charged cation?
metals cations
What type of ions do ionic compounds contain?
Mad up of positively charge cations and negatively charged anions.
Do IONIC COMPOUNDS need to be positively charged?
No they are not positively charged. Ionic bonds comprise of anions and cations.
Which type of compound is composed of negatively and positively charged atoms?
Ionic compounds are composed of negatively and positively charged atoms.

What type of ions do ionic compounds contain?
Mad up of positively charge cations and negatively charged anions.
Is an insulator positively charged or negatively charged?
I believe they'd are positively charged.
Positive charged center of an atom?
The positively charged center of an atom is the nucleus. The nucleus contains the protons and the neutrons. The protons are positively charged and the neutrons have no charge, therefore the nucleus is positively charged.
