Lecture
Catalysis: Surface Absorption and Molecular Bonding
Description
This lecture covers the concepts of absorption at interfaces, the effect of surface coverage, surface 'softness', catalysis, molecular orbital theory, bonding at surfaces, and the strength of bonding. It also discusses the Sabatier principle, strain on real surfaces, catalyst development strategies, the importance of catalysis in biomass upgrading and sustainable energy, selective catalysts, and concludes with the key role of surfaces in heterogeneous catalysis pathways.
