molecules are formed when atoms lose electrons and then attach themselves to other atoms that have the number of electrons needed to make up for what was lost. For example, Sodium and Chlorine bond together because one loses and electron and the other has the electron needed to replace it. This forms the molecule NaCl, which is more commonly known as salt.
