it will be taken away from the molecular of sodium by the static electronic force of chlorine molecular
Na - 1e -> [Na+] cation Na
Cl + 1e -> [Cl-] anion Cl

an Ionic Bond is formed since the extra electron of the sodium atom is given to the chlorine atom so,both the atoms will have a full outer shells.

since sodium has 1 electron in its outer shell +chlorine has 7 in its outer shell.than the sodium gives the electron to chlorine.making both chlorine + sodium ''happy'' as they both have a full outer shell of electrons now. hence they form sodium chloride NACl

Form sodium chloride which is a ionic compund,is very stable cos' they are binded together by a very strong electrostatic force
