Probably because they are smaller.

This due to the cations which have elctronic configuration ns2 np6 nd10 has a poor shileding effect on outer electrons hence effective nuclear attraction increase. The cations which have configuration ns2 np6 have a greater shielding effect so they have less nuclear attractionShafia Zahin said:Why the cations having electronic structure of ns2 np6 nd10 have more polarisation power on anions than the cations having electronic structure of ns2 np6?
