Chlorine becomes a negative ion in the process of bonding; ionization and bonding are simultaneous, so no, it does not happen before bonding.
Bonding is essentially electrostatic attraction between ions.
Hydronium ion. [H3O]+

Covalent bonding is when 2 non metals bond together as opposed to ionic bonding when one metal and gas ion bond together.

Magnesium will form a positive ion during ionic bonding. Sulfur will form a negative ion during ionic bonding. In ionic bonding, metals form positive ions and nonmetals form negative ions.

No, nitrogen does not become a negative ion before bonding. Nitrogen typically forms covalent bonds, in which it shares electrons with other atoms.
the term is an ION
No, aluminum does not become a negative ion; like all metals, it forms a positive ion.
