Ionic bonding usually involves a metal and a non metal. The metal becomes a cation (positively charged ion) by losing the electrons in its outer shell, and the non metal gains these electrons to become an anion, a negatively charged ion. By this process, both elements gain a full outer shell through the transfer of electrons from the metal to the non metal.
