"There are no accidents in my philosophy. Every effect must have its cause. The past is the cause of the present, and the present will be the cause of the future. All these are links in the endless chain stretching from the finite to the infinite." - Abraham Lincoln
the rule is correct because the cation polarises the anion , pulling the electronic charge towards itself and thereby increasing the electronic charge between the two...this is what happen in covalent bond ..i.e. build up of electron charge density between the nuclei ... hence due to small cation covalent character increases....
