Water is perhaps the most important and most pervasive chemical on our planet. The
influence of water permeates virtually all areas of biochemical, chemical and physical …

Solid-aqueous interfaces and their associated phenomena (adsorption, nucleation,
corrosion, catalysis, etc.) are ubiquitous in a multitude of chemical systems linking various …

Kinetic measurements, competitive hydrogenation, and H–D kinetic isotopic studies confirm
the prevalence of proton–electron transfer events during the catalytic reduction of aliphatic …

Density functional theory (DFT) was used to study the electrolyte solution effects on the
oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on Pt (111). To model the acid electrolyte, an H5O2+ …

The reactivity of Pt (100) towards methanol depends on surface structure and the nature and
amount of coadsorbed reaction modifiers. We studied the adsorption and reaction of CH3OH …

This article reports the discovery of surface-mediated parahydrogen-induced alignment of
the proton magnetic moments in liquid water as well as methanol and ethanol. In this …

The surface structure sensitivity of the water− gas shift (WGS) reaction (CO+ H2O→ CO2+
H2) over the Cu (111), Cu (100), and Cu (110) surfaces has been studied by first-principles …

Coadsorption of water and hydrogen on Pt (100) was studied under conditions of ultrahigh
vacuum with thermal desorption spectroscopy and high resolution electron energy loss …

In the previous literature, people have found that a new species forms when hydrogen and
water coadsorb on various faces of platinum. The new species was identified as “hydronium” …

The relationship between ultrahigh vacuum surface science and electrochemistry is
examined by comparison of so-called non-situ and ex-situ experiments performed in the …
