Abstract
By application of reactive thermal desorption spectroscopy and the sur face titration technique we found strong evidence for a direct reactio n of CO with molecularly adsorbed oxygen on a Ag(110) surface forming CO2 as the product. The reaction takes place between 100 and 130 K, cl early below the dissociation temperature of the oxygen molecule, and f ollows the Langmuir-Hinshelwood scheme.
