Atoms combine with other atoms to become more stable.

For example, Na (Sodium) has 11 atoms and if it gives Cl (Chlorine) one atom, it will then become 18 atoms. Ar (Argon) has 18 atoms which is also equivalent. When Sodium loses one it will then become 10 atoms, which is also equivalent to Ne (Neon). It is sort of a win-win situation.
