Record 2 1996-10-11

English

Subject field(s)

Relates in the usual sense to the formal nature of the cleavage of a single bond. If the electron pair in the bond of the adsorptive A : B is divided in the course of this dissociative adsorption, the adsorption is homolytic dissociative adsorption.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Chimie

French

Domaine(s)
  • Chimie
CONT

Dans son sens usuel, se rapporte à la nature formelle du bris d'une liaison simple. Si, dans la liaison de l'espèce à adsorber, A-B; si A ou B conserve la paire d'électrons, on dit qu'il s'agit d'une adsorption dissociative hétérolytique.
