ChE 553 Lecture 16 Mechanisms Of Surface Reactions
Objective • Start to talk about mechanisms of reactions on solid surfaces
Mechanisms Of Reactions On Surfaces • Generally surface reactions follow catalytic cycle with adsorption, reaction, desorption • Form adsorbed radicals • Radicals react • Molecules desorb
Generic Types Of Surface Reactions Most catalytic reactions Most film growth reactions
Rules Of Thumb • Reactions on solid catalysts (-600C) usually go by Langmuir-Hinshellwood • Reactions in semiconductor processing usually Rideal- Eley • Reactions on enzymes often precursor (can also be Langmuir)
Example Catalytic Mechanisms: Olefin Hydrogenation Transfer one atom at a time
Example CH3OHCO+2H2 Transfer one atom at a time Figure 5.14 The Mechanism of Methanol Decomposition on Pt(111).
The Mechanism Of Ethanol Decomposition On Pt(111) Transfer one atom or one ligand at a time
Typical Reactions On Metals • Simple molecular adsorption reactions • Dissociative adsorption reactions • Bond scission reactions • Addition reactions • Recombination reactions • Desorption reactions
Adsorption On Metals • Molecular Adsorption CO + S COad • Dissociative adsorption • oxidative addition H2 + 2S 2Had
Molecular vs Dissociative Adsorption Figure 5.12 The metals which dissociate CO, NO, H2, O2 and CO at various temperatures.
Association Reactions Typical on metal surfaces Typical on metal clusters
-scission R2CDCH2(ad) R2C=CH2 + D(ad) (14.15)
Can usually predict mechanism on metal surfaces by just considering the 5 steps Dissociative adsorption Associative Desorption Molecular adsorption Associative hydrogen migration

Example: Ethanol Decomposition On Pt(111) Transfer one atom or one ligand at a time
Summary • Reactions on surfaces go by Rideal-Eley or Langmuir Hinschelwood Mechanisms • RE film growth • LH catalysis • Reactions on metals • Only 5 characteristic reactions • Usually transfer a ligand or atom to or from surface • No direct isomerizations
