Abstract: Subtree number index emphSTN(G) of a graph G is the number of nonempty subtrees of G. It is a structural and counting based topological index that has received more and more attention in recent years. In this paper we first obtain exact formulas for the expected values of subtree number index of random polyphenylene and spiro chains, which are molecular graphs of a class of unbranched multispiro molecules and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Moreover, we establish a relation between the expected values of the subtree number indices of a random polyphenylene and its corresponding hexagonal squeeze. We also present the average values for subtree number indices with respect to the set of all polyphenylene and spiro chains with n hexagons.
