Bulkiness

Researchers measure the steric bulkiness of ligands or protein scales to understand how the size of molecules affects their chemical reactions and properties.

Depending on the field, "bulkiness" can be a descriptive trait or a technical metric: bulkiness

It describes the physical volume of items like winter coats , blankets, or paper , where high bulk means the material is thick but potentially lightweight. Researchers measure the steric bulkiness of ligands or
