Reaction rates of all hydrogenation steps in ammonia synthesis over a Ru(0001) surface

Abstract:

The hydrogenation reactions of nitrogen (NH n, (ads) + H (ads) → NH n + 1, (ads), n = 0, 1, 2) on metal surfaces are important elementary steps in the catalytic formation of ammonia. We investigate the reaction dynamics of these hydrogenations on a Ru(0001) surface using transition state theory, including small curvature tunneling corrections. Potential energy surfaces are derived by density functional theory (RPBE) in tw...
