摘要: Abstract Density functional theory computations have been employed to investigate the decomposition of formic acid (HCO2H) into CO2 and hydrogen on β-Mo2C(101) surface. The adsorption configurations energies surface intermediates (HCO2H, CO2, CO, H2O, HCO2, CO2H, CHO, OH, O H) systematically characterized. Among different dissociation steps considered, our results showed formate route (HCO2H → H + HCO2; HCO2 → H + CO2) is minimum energy path for formation has very strong chemisorption. Mo2C(101) compared with those Pt group metals.
