  2. Randić's molecular connectivity index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randić's_molecular...

    The Randić index, also known as the connectivity index, of a graph is the sum of bond contributions / / where and are the degrees of the vertices making bond i ~ j. History [ edit ]

  3. Topological index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topological_index

    In the fields of chemical graph theory, molecular topology, and mathematical chemistry, a topological index, also known as a connectivity index, is a type of a molecular descriptor that is calculated based on the molecular graph of a chemical compound. [1]

  4. Tetrahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedral_molecular_geometry

    In a tetrahedral molecular geometry, a central atom is located at the center with four substituents that are located at the corners of a tetrahedron.The bond angles are arccos(− ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠) = 109.4712206...° ≈ 109.5° when all four substituents are the same, as in methane (CH 4) [1] [2] as well as its heavier analogues.

  5. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    Molecules, by definition, are most often held together with covalent bonds involving single, double, and/or triple bonds, where a "bond" is a shared pair of electrons (the other method of bonding between atoms is called ionic bonding and involves a positive cation and a negative anion).

  6. Ligand field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligand_field_theory

    The LFT analysis is highly dependent on the geometry of the complex, but most explanations begin by describing octahedral complexes, where six ligands coordinate with the metal. Other complexes can be described with reference to crystal field theory . [ 5 ]

  7. Coordination cage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_cage

    Coordinate bonds are useful in such supramolecular self-assembly because of their versatile geometries. [1] However, there is controversy over calling coordinate bonds noncovalent, as they are typically strong bonds and have covalent character. [2] The combination of a coordination cage and a guest is a type of inclusion compound. Coordination ...

  8. Reaction coordinate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_coordinate

    In chemistry, a reaction coordinate [1] is an abstract one-dimensional coordinate chosen to represent progress along a reaction pathway. Where possible it is usually a geometric parameter that changes during the conversion of one or more molecular entities , such as bond length or bond angle .

  9. Coordinate covalent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_covalent_bond

    In coordination chemistry, a coordinate covalent bond, [1] also known as a dative bond, [2] dipolar bond, [1] or coordinate bond [3] is a kind of two-center, two-electron covalent bond in which the two electrons derive from the same atom. The bonding of metal ions to ligands involves this kind of interaction. [4]
