The role of surface deconstruction in the autocatalytic decomposition of formate and acetate on Ni(110)
Article Abstract:
An investigation on the adsorption of formate and acetate on the Ni(110) surface is presented with STM, LEED, TPRS, and XPS. The study concluded that the added Ni in the formate structure facilities the decomposition of formate into CO2, H2, and scattered Ni(sub x) nuclei, which act as sites for further formate decomposition.

Compensation effect in the hydrogenation/dehydrogenation kinetics of metal hydrides
Article Abstract:
The possible existence of a compensation effect in the kinetics of the metal-hydrogen reaction is investigated for the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation kinetics of metal hydrides. A series of reported kinetic studies on Mg and LaNi(sub 5) based hydrides were analyzed.

An STM investigation of sulfur and alkoxide adsorption on Ni(100)
Article Abstract:
The effect of sulfur on alkoxide formation and decomposition on the Ni(100) surface is investigated with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED). The STM images reveal details of the p(2 X 2) and c(2 x 2) sulfur-covered.
