The chloride ion now has eighteen electrons and seventeen protons, so it's become a negative ion. Because the sodium ion has a positive charge, and the chlorine ion has a negative charge, they are attracted to each other, and form an ionic bond.

Ionic bonds form when atoms transfer electrons between each other, forming ions that are electrically attracted to each other forming a bond between them. Sodium chloride (NaCl) is a typical ionic compound. ... Sodium has 1 electron in its outermost shell, and chlorine has 7 electrons.
