Calculating reversible potentials for Pt-H and Pt-OH bonds formation in basic solutions
Article Abstract:
A study on the two redox reactions on platinum electrodes in base is carried out by using two methods to explore the formation of underpotential deposited hydrogen forming a Pt-H bond and the electro-oxidation of water. The local reaction center double layer models are developed and demonstrated for reactions in base by calculating reversible potentials for onset upd H and OH-(ads) formations.

Calculating reversible potentials for elementary reactions in acid and base from model reaction energies
Article Abstract:
The five reduction reactions are reexamined using the B3LYP hybrid density functional theory. The results using a 6-31G basis in the B3LYP hybrid density functional theory are shown to be comparable to ab initio MP2 results obtained previously for acid solution with c=0.49 for the former and 0.50 for the later.

The reversible hydrogen electrode: potential-dependent activation energies over platinum from quantum theory
Article Abstract:
The calculation of potential-dependent activation energies using a local reaction center model is presented. This reaction center model includes the hydrogen reduction-oxidation reaction over platinum by the Volmer-Heyrovsky mechanism.
