<span>A cation is an atom that loses a valence electron. When a valence electron is released there is one electron less to create a repulsive force. The loss of a repulsive force will allow the atom to pull tighter together. An anion would therefore be larger in size due to increased repulsion of the valence electrons.</span>

The digestive system takes the nutrients from the food you eat as well as the water. The leftover matter is excreted through the body as feces, or poop. Hope I helped :)
<span>By definition, the first ionization energy is the energy required to remove the most loosely held electron from one mole of gaseous atoms to produce 1 mole of gaseous ions each with a charge of 1+. </span><span />
The end product will depend upon
a) the amount of the reagent taken
b) the final treatment of the reaction
If we have just taken methylmagnesium iodide and p-hydroxyacetophenone, then we will get methane and hydroxyl group substituted with MgI in place of hydrogen
Figure 1
However if we have taken excess of methylmagnesium iodide which is Grignard's reagent followed by hydrolysis we will get different product
