β¦ Synopsis
We have applied the Stockholm rule to obtain stable binding energies for sulfur to clusters of up to 22 palladium atoms at the RECP Hartree-Fock+second-order perturbation theory (PT2) level in order to judge which clusters are suitable to be used in modeling atomic chemisorption. Using a suitable model cluster of the Pd( I 1 I ) surface, we computed the perpendicular stretching potentials for H, 0, N and S, the equilibrium PdX distances, and, the quadratic stretching force constants. The hydrogen and nitrogen bonds to the Pd( 111) plane penetrate the surface and have a signiticant participation from metal atoms in the second layer. The oxygen and sulfur bonds are x type and are well localized in the chemisorption site.
