Solution

The correct option is A

A - II, B - IV, C - I, D - III


Smaller the cation and more its charge, more is its power to distort the electron cloud of anion. Thus,

cation size1polarizing power

Cation chargepolarizing power

Larger the size of anion and its charge, more is its polarizability.

Thus,

Anion sizepolarizability

Anion chargepolarizability
