| contents | The adsorption and dissociation of H$_2$, O$_2$, and H$_2$O on Ni-Fe alloys with variable Fe:Ni ratio are studied by means of Density Functional Theory calculations. The alloy composition deeply influences the thermochemistry of the adsorption and dissociation processes, with relevant implications to catalysis and electrocatalysis. For large concentration of Fe, the adsorption of H$_2$ is facilitated. On the contrary, O$_2$ is bound more strongly on Ni(111). The dissociation of all three molecules is favourable on all considered supports. However, the O$_2$ and H$_2$O dissociation is more favourable on NiFe alloys compared to Ni, while the dissociation of H$_2$ has a similar thermodynamic profile on pure Ni and Ni$_2$Fe alloy, and is less favourable on NiFe. |
