The bondonic radii and gravitational actions are parallel increasing, while some-
how anti-parallel with the bondonic mass variation as the bonding energy
decreases from more to less bonding nature, i.e. from inner molecular orbital
to the frontier HOMO;
For larger system the HOMO level is less bound so having less bondonic mass
and higher radius of action that determine also a higher gravitational influence (in
order to keep the bond to a longer range of action).
