Abstract
The adsorption of CO from 0.5 M H 2SO 4 solution on platinum has been studied using CO labelled with C-14. The adsorption of CO on Pt occurs in the potential range of hydrogen adsorption as well as in the double layer region. In the whole potential range the rate of adsorption follows first order kinetics. From the surface concentrations and charges for oxidation of adsorbed species it follows that the product of chemisorption consists at least of two kinds of species. One of them is the COOH radical probably formed by the reaction of CO with water.
