Best Answer

Electrons are transferred from the metal to the non-metal (the metal is said to be oxidised and the non-metal reduced). The force of attraction that holds the iosn together is electrostatic attraction the same force that makes your stand up one end when you comb it! In electrostatic attraction unlike charges attract (positive attracts negative) and the like charges repel.
