Abstract
The theory of catalytic action recently advanced qualitatively by Pease, Taylor, Armstrong and Hilditch, Constable, which the author has endeavoured to treat quantitatively, is extended in this paper to the explanation of the effect of pressure and inert diluents on catalytic action on saturated surfaces. The results are shown to be in agreement with experiment, and further inferences may be made concerning the relative mean lives of the reactant and the diluent on the surface.
