Why would a sodium ion attract an electron?

Ions form when atoms gain or lose electrons. Since electrons are negatively charged, an atom that loses one or more electrons will become positively charged; an atom that gains one or more electrons becomes negatively charged. ... These oppositely charged ions attract each other to form ionic networks (or lattices).
