Description: This book is the third in a three-volume series treating the adsorptive, catalytic and electronic properties of solid surfaces. The authors are the first to treat surface chemical bonding in compounds of transition metals from a unified viewpoint taking ideas from both physics and chemistry. This volume gives an account of active sites in complexes and on the surfaces of metals and oxides in terms of the electronic structure of transition metal atoms. Possible mechanisms of interaction of simple molecules with such active sites are also discussed. All chemists and physicists concerned with the study of catalysis, adsorption and surface phenomena should find this book useful and interesting.
