Hello.

The answer is

The positive charges of the nuclei and the negative charges of delocalized electrons or the metallic bonds.

In a piece of metal, you have positive and negative charges attracting each other, holding the metal together.The positive charges come from the nucleiThe negative charges come from the delocalized electrons
