The Velocities of Adsorption of Hydrogen and Deuterium on Hydrogenation Catalysts

Abstract
The velocities of adsorption of hydrogen and deuterium have been measured on the hydrogenating oxide catalysts, chromium oxide and zinc‐oxide‐chromium oxide and on a supported nickel catalyst. The velocities of adsorption of the two gases are identical, within the experimental error, over a range of temperature on each surface. The fundamental importance of these observations in the theory of activated adsorption and in chemical kinetics generally is emphasized.
