An analysis has been made of the optimal conditions, as determined by the electronic factor, for attack on an adsorbed CO molecule by a surface O/sup -/ anion-radical, leading to the formation of CO/sub 2/. A qualitative scheme is presented for the course of the CO oxidation reaction on the surface of different types of semiconductors, and an interpretation is proposed for the correlative relationships between the specific rate of the reaction and the electronic characteristics of oxides.
