Phoenix can handle multiple representations, but being explicit reduces ambiguity. A chemist familiar with your field should be able to unambiguously identify the molecule(s) from your query.

## 2. Specify desired outputs clearly.

-
Clearly state what you need from Phoenix. It can be a synthesis route, molecular property prediction, safety assessment, literature-backed answer, or a combination of these. The more specific you are about the outputs you need, the better Phoenix can select appropriate tools and provide actionable results.

## 3. Use proper chemical terminology and notation.

-
Employ standard chemical nomenclature and notation. For example, use SMILES representation for reactions: `reactants>reagents>products`. Use standard property names (e.g., ADMET properties) when requesting specific molecular properties. This helps Phoenix understand your intent and select the most appropriate computational tools.

## 6. Request specific properties or analyses.

Instead of asking vaguely about a molecule, specify what you need. For example, request specific ADMET properties, synthetic accessibility scores, solubility predictions, or toxicity data. This allows Phoenix to use the most appropriate computational tools and provide quantitative, actionable results.
