The positively charged magnesium ion - Mg+2 and negatively charged chlorine ions Cl- create the ionic bond by attracting each other. And, magnesium chloride formation occurs by transferring electrons of the outer orbits. This ionic bond helps to complete the electron transferring process between atoms.
