Homomolecular isotope exchange of hydrogen on nickel - chromia catalystand on nickel films
Abstract
The specific catalytic activity (K/sub sp/) of commercial Ni/Cr/sub 2/O/sub 3/ catalyst and of nickel films has been investigated in the reaction of isotope exchange in molecular hydrogen at temperatures of 77-293/sup 0/K and a pressure of 0.5mm Hg. For the nickel films, a break was observed in the Arrhenius plot at 130/sup 0/K; the values of the activation energy E for the low-temperature and high-temperature regions were 0 and 6 kJ/mole, respectively. For the Ni/Cr/sub 2/O/sub 3/ catalyst, over the entire interval of temperatures investigated, E = 10.6 kJ/mole. Warming of this catalyst over an extended period in hydrogen led to the appearance of a break on the Arrhenius line at 120/sup 0/K, below which E = 0. In the case of the nickel films, warming in hydrogen, as well as adsorption of preatomized hydrogen led to changes in the course of the temperature dependence of K/sub sp/: The break on the Arrhenius line was observed at 190/sup 0/K, with a zero activation energy below this temperature, and an activation energy above this temperature that had been increased to 30 kJ/mole. The reasons for these changes are discussed on the basis of assumptions of a difference in forms ofmore »
