Align icon to the right in a table cell?

I have a simple table cell which contains a text and an icon. I want to align the text on the left and the icon on the right. I tried it like this, but it does not work. The only solution i know would be to create another td where i put the icon inside. But i want both, text and icon in one td

    table {
        border: 1px solid red;
    }

    td {
      border: 1px solid black;
      width: 200px;
    }
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
    <table>
    <tr>
    <td>Text <span align="right"><i class="fa fa-toggle-on"></i></span></td>
      <td>Test</td>
    </tr>
    </table>

    table {
        border: 1px solid red;
    }

    td {
      border: 1px solid black;
      width: 200px;
    }
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
    <table>
    <tr>
    <td>Text <span ><i class="fa fa-toggle-on pull-right"></i></span></td>
      <td>Test</td>
    </tr>
    </table>

this is the best way i think...

Try This:

<style>
/*If not using bootstrap add this to you css*/
 .pull.right{
   float:right;
 }


 <table width="100%">
  <tr>
  <td>Text <span><i class="fa fa-toggle-on pull-right">      </i></span></td>
  <td>Test</td>
 </tr>
 </table>

Just add will make your icon to right side.

span {
    float: right;
}

Your updated example:

table {
    border: 1px solid red;
}

td {
  border: 1px solid black;
  width: 200px;
}

td > span {
    float: right;
}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
<table>
<tr>
<td>Text <span><i class="fa fa-toggle-on"></i></span></td>
  <td>Test</td>
</tr>
</table>

Try to use

style="float:right;"

like this:

table {
    border: 1px solid red;
}

td {
  border: 1px solid black;
  width: 200px;
}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.5.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">

<table>
<tr>
<td>Text <span style="float:right;"><i class="fa fa-toggle-on"></i></span></td>
  <td>Test</td>
</tr>
</table>

Also as webeno has correctly pointed out in comments, the align attribute has been deprecated now. So try to avoid it.

If you want them in same td(not adding another for icon) you can try this:

<td>
  <div style="float:left;width:50%;">I stay at left</div>
  <div style="float:right;width:50%;">And I stay at right</div>
</td>
