Correct Answer - A
`"Ionic radii"prop (1)/(Z_("eff"))`
` Z_("eff") to "effective nuclear charge"`
Thus `Z_("eff")` is calculated as follows:
`Z_("eff") = Z- " screenig constant" (sigma)`
This value of screening constant is based upon the number of electrons in valence shell as well as in penultimate shells.
