Abstract
A family of chemical compounds known as metal–organic networks (MONs) is composed mainly of clusters of metal ions with organic ligands. It can increase volatility or make substances soluble in organic solvents. By using these salient features, organic compounds generate applications in material sciences for sol–gel processing. A graph’s entropy is utilized as a complexity indicator and is interpreted as the structural information content of the graph. Investigating the entropies of relationship systems is a common occurrence in discrete mathematics, computer science, information theory, statistics, chemistry, and biology. In this article, we investigated the degree-based entropies: geometric arithmetic entropy, atom bond connectivity entropy, general Randic′ entropy, and general sum connectivity entropy for MONs. Furthermore, we created tables for all expressions by using 1–10 values for the
1 Introduction
Chemical graph theory (CGT) is a subfield of mathematical chemistry that explores chemical phenomena computationally using the techniques of graph theory. In CGT, theoretical chemistry and graph theory are merged. It also connects to the nontrivial applications of graph theory for mitigating molecular issues (Gao et al., 2018). Hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen are the three elements that make up the core of the earth. One of the upcoming energy sources is hydrogen (Yang et al., 2009). Among the numerous gases, hydrogen lacks smell, which makes it nearly impossible for humans to trace any leaks. The US Energy Department’s current rules focus on the tool’s detection accuracy, requiring it to find
A topological invariant is a numeric value that is associated with the chemical structure and helps predict the modeling of quantitative structure property relationship/quantitative structure activity relationship for any chemical structure. From logic and biology to physics and engineering, entropy has been a rigorous and transcendental method in a variety of fields of research. Information entropy was first conceived by Shannon (1948) in communication theory. In information theory, it serves as a structural descriptor to evaluate the complexity of chemical structures. A measure of a system’s uncertainty is known as the entropy of a probability distribution, too. Entropy was later applied to chemical networks and graphs. It was created to assess the usefulness of analysis in graphs and chemical networks. Rashevsky (1955), Trucco (1956), and Mowshowitz (1968) were the first to define and analyse the entropy of graphs.
