Abstract
A model of dissociative chemisorption on a surface with a square latti ce was studied using the Monte Carlo method. The model is based on two chemisorption pathways: ''direct'' - nucleation of adsorption islands , and ''indirect'' - their growth. The development of the surface dist ribution picture of chemisorbed particles was found to depend signific antly on the contribution of these two pathways (S-indir/S-dir).
