Chlorine will take your extra sodium electron and leave you with 10 electrons inside of two filled shells. You are now a happy atom too. You are also an ion and missing one electron. That missing electron gives you a positive charge. Chem4Kids.com: Atoms: Ions www.chem4kids.com/files/atom_ions.htmlChem4Kids http://prntscr.com/9mi1e6 Yes, Sir! :D
