Abstract :
in this article the terminal status of a vertex and terminal status connectivity indices of a connected graph have introduced. explicit formulae for the terminal status of vertices and for terminal status connectivity indices of certain graphs are obtained. also some bounds are given for these indices. further these indices are used for predicting the physico-chemical properties of cycloalkanes and it is observed that the correlation of physico-chemical properties of cycloalkanes with newly introduced indices is better than the correlation with other indices.
