The coadsorbed H 2O (OH) species slightly increase the CO 2 adsorption energies, primarily through formation of hydrogen bonds, and create new binding configurations that are not present on the anhydrous surface. Proton transfer reactions to CO 2 with formation of bicarbonate and carbonic acid species were investigated and found to have barriers in the range 6.1-12.8 kcalmol, with reactions involving participation of two or more water molecules or OH groups having lower barriers than reactions involving a single adsorbed water molecule or OH group. The reactions to form the most stable adsorbed formate and bicarbonate species are exothermic relative to the unreacted adsorbed CO 2 and H 2O (OH) species, with formation of the bicarbonate species being favored. These results are consistent with single crystal measurements which have identified formation of bicarbonate-type species following coadsorption of CO 2 and water on rutile (110). © 2012 American Institute of Physics. date: 2012-08-21 date_type: published publication: Journal of Chemical Physics volume: 137 number: 7 refereed: TRUE issn: 0021-9606 centers: cen_other_molecularmatsim id_number: 10.1063/1.4739088 pmid: 22920134 citation: Sorescu, DC and Lee, J and Al-Saidi, WA and Jordan, KD (2012) Coadsorption properties of CO 2 and H 2O on TiO 2 rutile (110): A dispersion-corrected DFT study.
