Newtonian physics

According to Newtonian physics, the greater the distance between two particles, given the so-called gravitational constant, the less will be the gravitational force between them.

a. the greater the distance between two particles, given the so-called gravitational constant, the less will be the gravitational force between them.

b. given the so-called gravitational constant, the greater the distance between two particles, the smaller the gravitational force between them.

c. given the so-called gravitational constant, more distance between two particles will result in a lesser gravitational force between them

d. the less of a gravitational force between two objects, the more of a distance between, given the so-called gravitational constant

e the greater the distance the less the gravitational force between two particles, given the so-called gravitational constant

The greater the X the less will X

B, D and E are not complete sentences. (no verb)
C distance itself does not result in something


a. the greater the distance between two particles, given the so-called gravitational constant, the less will be the gravitational force between them.

I'll have to reluctantly choose option B though by oversight I chose option D first.

I think for parallel construction "the greater .. something is .." .... "the lesser ...." is the most appropriate. I am reluctant about B because the usage of smaller seems to be wrong - it's not idiomatic to say the gravitational force is smaller - we are not quantifying the size of the force.

Also I think the subject of the sentence is gravitational constant - so I would be inclined to place that in the first part of the sentence.
