Results of measurements of heats of adsorption of methane, ethane, propane, ethylene, propylene, acetylene, methylacetylene, allene, and cyclopropane at room temperature in an adsorption calorimeter on Pt films deposited in the 10/sup -9/ Torr region are reported. Comparison of results obtained earlier with Mo films indicated a lower adsorption capacity of the prepared Pt films and lower heats of adsorption. Mechanisms are proposed for the adsorption of each organic compound tested.
