hey...there is your answer..
Ions are electrically charged particles formedwhen atoms lose or gain electrons. They have the same electronic structures as noble gases. Metal atoms form positive ions, while non-metal atoms form negative ions. The strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions are calledionic bonds.
