Explain polarizing power with ionic radius

Polarizing Power is the basis of Fajan's rules of covalent character generally in ionic compounds.

Charges and radius are a function of Polarizing Power, because the higher the charge is, the larger the polarizing power is for cations with the same radius. Also the smaller the radius is, the larger the polarizing power is for cations with the same charge.

Explanation:

it is to be noted that an alpha particle is an helium nucleus. so it contains 2 protons 2 neutrons and has a mass number of 4. when alpha decay particles are ejected from the nucleus it gets transformed into an atom which has atomic number less than 2 and a mass number less than 4.

an equation that could represent alpha decay is radium 226 decay of alpha particle forms radon 222.
