Abstract
Hydrogen chemisorption energy dependence on the electronic structure o f the 3d, 4d, and 5d transition metals is examined in terms of the And erson-Newns model. High catalytic effectiveness of the Pt-group metals in hydrogen evolution is explained. The Ag-H binding energy and the e nergies of hydrogen chemisorption on the metals of group IB of the per iodic table (Cu, Ag, and Au) are obtained.
