Abstract
The relation between geometry and nickel reactivity was explored using density functional theory. The reactivity was gauged by hydrogen and methane dissociations on atomic nickel and the tetrahedral clusters where binding energies and dissociation barriers were calculated. The results were then compared to Ni13 icosahedral clusters and (1 1 1) crystal surfaces.
