Explanation:

HEY MATE HERE IS YOUR ANSWER

Cations (positively-charged ions) and anions (negatively-charged ions) are formed when a metal loses electrons, and a nonmetal gains those electrons. The electrostatic attraction between the positives and negatives brings the particles together and creates an ionic compound, such as sodium chloride.

1) Small size of cation: Smaller size of cation greater is its polarizing power i.e. greater will be the covalent nature of the bond. (2) Large size of anion: Larger the size of anion greater is its polarizing power i.e. greater will be the covalent nature of the bond.

Answer:

the electronic configuration is the factor on which formation of cation and anion depend upon

Explanation:

if an element loose electron then it will form a cation and if gains electron it will form an anion
