Abstract
The characteristic radii for univalent cations and anions were defined by the classical turning point of the electron movement in an ion. The numerical results of the elements from firstto third-rows in the periodic table were obtained usingab initio method. The results correlate quite well with Pauling ionic radii and Shannon and Prewitt ionic radii.
