Best Answer

NaCl

The classic example. The chlorine atom, being highly electronegative, accepts the sodium's one valance electron into it's valance shell. This creates two ions of opposite charge that attract one another Na(+) ( now positive with the loss of one negative electron ) and Cl(-) now negatively charged by accepting the donation of one negatively charged electron ) to make NaCl, an ionic compound.
