On the catalysis of the hydrogen oxidation†
Abstract
A recently developed model for electrocatalysis is combined with results of quantum chemical calculations to investigate the effect of the electrode’s electronic structure on the rate of the hydrogen oxidation reaction. Model calculations have been performed for three metals with widely differing properties: Cd(0001), Au(111) and Pt(111). In line with experimental findings, the energy of
