Fajans' Rules
Evaluation of the Given Factors:
No. The anion undergoes polarization; it is not the one doing the active squeezing or pulling. Hence, the "polarizing power of an anion" is an incorrect/irrelevant parameter here.
Summary:
Factors A, B, and C all validly influence the overall percent covalent character, whereas D does not. Therefore, there are exactly 3 correct factors.
