Abstract

Thermodynamic data for the chemisorption of hydrogen on the Pt, Ir, and Rh electrodes were evaluated from data in the literature. On the basis of these data, the potential-pH diagrams were calculated for the Pt-H2O, Ir-H2O, and Rh-H2O systems describing the hydrogen chemisorption. For the hydrogen chemisorption, the surface was considered to be uniformly inhomogeneous.
