More often than not, it is very tough to imagine the contrast between sensor sizes just by going over specifications. The picture here may offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-100 and A7R.
To sum up, both the cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The EX-100 having a tinier sensor is going to make achieving bokeh more difficult and the Sony A7R will offer you more detail because of its extra 24MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop pics a bit more aggressively.
