Abstract When a molecule is in the presence of chemical reagent, external potential and number electrons change. This leads to perturbative perspectives on reactivity, wherein response various “model perturbations” used predict its reactivity. The perspective allows one treat indices associated with conceptual density functional theory unified way.
