Abstract:
Chemical graph theory has revolutionary impacts in the field of mathematical chemistry when complex structures are investigated through various chemical invariants (topological indices). We have performed evaluations by considering alternatives as crystal structures, namely Face-Centered Cubic (FCC), hexagonal close-packed (HCP), Hexagonal (HEX), and Body Centered Cubic (BCC) Lattice structures, through the study of two-dimensional degree-based chemical invariants, which we considered criteria. QSPR modeling has been implemented for the targeted crystal structures to investigate the ability of targeted chemical invariants to predict targeted physical properties. Furthermore, the Fuzzy-TOPSIS technique provides the optimal structure HCP ranking as first among all structures when investigated under more than one criterion, which justifies further that the structure attaining dominant countable invariant values ranks high when investigated through physical properties and fuzzy TOPSIS.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
CFT focuses on...
