The Sodium atom. 1  The Na atom has an equal number of electrons and protons (11 e-and 11 p+). 2  This atom too is unstable because the outer valance shell of electrons has only one electron in it. 3  To be stable the outer shell of electrons should have eight electrons.
Transfer of the lone 3s electron of a sodium atom to the half-filled 3p orbital of a chlorine atom generates a sodium cation (neon valence shell) and a chloride anion (argon valence shell). Electrostatic attraction results in these oppositely charged ions packing together in a lattice.
