The charge/size ratio of a cation determines its polarizing power. Which one of the following sequences represents the increasing order of the polarizing power of the cationic species,\[{{K}^{+}},C{{a}^{2+}},M{{g}^{2+}}\] and \[B{{e}^{2+}}\]?

A.  \[M{{g}^{2+}}\]<\[B{{e}^{2+}}\]<\[{{K}^{+}}\]<\[C{{a}^{2+}}\]
B.  \[B{{e}^{2+}}\]<\[{{K}^{+}}\]<\[C{{a}^{2+}}\]<\[M{{g}^{2+}}\]
C.  \[{{K}^{+}}\]<\[C{{a}^{2+}}\]<\[M{{g}^{2+}}\]<\[B{{e}^{2+}}\]
D.  \[C{{a}^{2+}}\]<\[M{{g}^{2+}}\]<\[B{{e}^{2+}}\]<\[{{K}^{+}}\]
Answer» D.  \[C{{a}^{2+}}\]<\[M{{g}^{2+}}\]<\[B{{e}^{2+}}\]<\[{{K}^{+}}\]
