We have thus related the static dielectric polarizability radius, r(alpha), the inverse of the first ionization potential, I(-1), the inverse of Pauling electronegativity scale, chi(-1)(P) and the size CR of atoms that contribute to interatomic distance involving atoms of the main group elements in the periodic table. There is a linear relationship between r(n)(Z)(c) and a size-dependent atomic property P of the form P = C(P)r(atom) + D(P), where r(atom) is a simple and transparent function of r(n)(Z)(c) and DP is simply related to the property of the hydrogen atom, except for P = I(-1) when DP is a property of the occupancy of the valence s-and p-electrons. We find a strict criterion for metallicity in elements based on atomic sizes and show how this criterion can be used to account for changes in descriptions of interatomic distance for gas-phase MX compounds of metallic elements.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.833</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
