Because it has 7 electrons in its outermost (valency) shell and getting 8 electrons there would close the shell.

Which element if combined with chlorine will have the greatest attraction for the chlorine electrons N P As?
N
Does the chlorine atoms in hydrogen chloride have a stronger attraction for the electrons than the hydrogen atoms do?
Yes. The electronegativity of chlorine is more than that of hydrogen. As such, the electrons are closer towards chlorine than hydrogen in HCl.
Do plasma molecules have a strong attraction to each other?
electrons :)
Which element if combined with chlorine will have the greatest attraction for the chlorine electrons?
Your question is not clear.If you think to nitrogen chloride this compound has the chemical formula NCl3.
What is the polarity of the HCl molecule due to?
Greater attraction of the chlorine nucleus for the shared electrons, large differences in electronegativity, and shape of the molecule.

What is the word for strong attraction to electrons as do the atoms of oxygen and hydrogen.?
electronegativity, i believe
Why sharing electrons causes atoms to bond together?
When electrons are shared between atoms, the nuclei of both atoms experience attraction towards the electrons and vice versa. At a certain distance, the attraction is maximal because the repulsion between the nuclei is small while the attraction of each nuclei to the electrons is strong. Thus, the atoms are held together by their attraction to the shared electrons.

Why do elements on the left side of the periodic give away electrons?
The attraction between the atomic nucleus and electrons is less strong.
What is the polarity of the HCl molecule due to?
Greater attraction of the chlorine nucleus for the shared electrons, large differences in electronegativity, and shape of the molecule.
