The Bond-Energy Bond-Order (BEBO) Model of Chemisorption
نویسنده
چکیده
The bond-energy bond-order (BEBO) model of chemisorption allows an estimate to be made of the interaction energy between a gaseous specie and a solid surface as a function of either bond length or bond order, i.e., the length or order of either the gas-surface bond being formed or the bond of the gaseous molecule being broken. The relationship between bond energy and either bond length or bond order is deduced from spectroscopic correlations for gaseous molecules, and a linear relationship between bond energy and bond order is assumed for the surface-adsorbate interaction. The geometry of the surface orbitals is taken to be that predicted by the crystal field model. The model allows a prediction of several relevant quantities in gas-surface interactions, namely; (1) binding energies for molecular adsorbed species, (2) binding energies for atomically adsorbed species, (3) activation energies to chemisorption, and (4) activation energies to dissociative chemisorption. The model is illustrated for the adsorption of H2, CO, NO and 0 2 on Pt, Wand Ni surfaces.

ION REACTIONS The technique for estimation of activation energies for simple atom transfer reactions was developed by Johnston and coworkers (1963, 1966). The method is based upon the concept of conservation of bond order during the reaction process. Here bond order is defined as a number which is related to the strength of the chemical bond, hence bond energy-bond order (BEBO). In this notatio...

New chemical-state-specific scanned-energy mode photoelectron diffraction experiments and density functional theory calculations, applied to CO, CO/H, and N2 adsorption on Ni(100), show that chemisorption bond length changes associated with large changes in bond strength are small, but those associated with changes in bond order are much larger, and are similar to those found in molecular syste...

Using the interstitial electron surface model (IESM) developed in the accompanying part, we examined the structures and energetics of a number of organic fragments on Pt surfaces. Using nonlocal density functional methods (B3LYP) we find that organics covalently bond to the Pt(111) surface with localized σ bonds to the surface Pt atoms, leading to tetrahedral hybridization of each carbon bonded...
