Ionic Radius :
The force of attraction or repulsion, F, between two charges qC (charge on cation) and qA (charge on anion) separated by a distance d (sum of ionic radii of two ions) is given by Coulomb’s law as
Where D = dielectric constant.
d = radius of cation + radius of anion as shown in figure.
