A negatively charged "ion".
If a chlorine atom gains a valence electron, it becomes a negatively charged ion known as a chloride ion (Cl⁻). Conversely, if it were to lose a valence electron, which is less common for chlorine, it would become a positively charged ion, but this scenario is unlikely due to its high electronegativity. Thus, the most common ion formed by chlorine is Cl⁻ when it gains an electron.
The valence of a monoatomic chlorine ion is 1 and its charge is -1.
when chlorine gains an electron, it now now contains a full octet. this means that the chlorine element is now chemically perfect and now is stable , but not as stable as one of the Noble Gases
When chlorine gains an electron , it forms an anion. It is represented as Cl-
The chloride ion is an anion (Cl-).

Chlorine atoms have 7 outermost electrons and need to gain an electron to achieve the stability of a full valence shell.
Ion. Any atom that loses or gains an electron becomes an ion.

an ion. If a chlorine atom gains an electron, it becomes a negatively charged chloride ion (Cl-) and if it loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged chlorine cation (Cl+).

There are 7 electrons on the valence shell. Chlorine requires one electron to make it complete and the ion would therefore be Cl- (one minus charge)
A chlorine atom has 7 valence electrons, as it is in group 17 of the periodic table. A chloride ion has 8 valence electrons, as it gains an additional electron to achieve a full octet and a stable electron configuration.
It gains one electron to become Cl^-.
