Abstract

Quantum-chemical calculations of clusters modelling adsorption complexes on the γ-Al2O3 surface have been used to evaluate two points of view on the mechanism of surface dissociation of water molecules on this oxide. The calculations show that this process involves interaction of water molecules with basic surface oxygen atoms rather than with Lewis acid sites.
