Calculated molar refractivity

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-001572",
  "term": "Calculated molar refractivity",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A theoretical measure of the total polarizability of a molecule, derived from its chemical structure and atomic refractivities. This value is often used in quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR) to predict a compound's physical properties or biological activity. It is expressed in units of volume per mole, such as cm³/mol.",
