Popis: Banholzer et al. used an orbital symmetry model to predict the activity of various Pt faces for the dissociation of adsorbed NO. The predictions were later extended to the adsorption system CO/Pt. Our experimentally observed activities for the dissociation of CO on clean Pt {430}, {320}, {520}, {310}, {410} and {210} do not follow these predictions. However, the measured activities agree well with the predictions of the C6 “atomic site” model.
