  • Published:
Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The basic contribution to the kinetic isotopic effect in the case of atomization of hydrogen is made by the difference of the bond strengths in the molecules of hydrogen and deuterium.

  2. 2.

    The activated complex of the process of desorption of atoms from the surface of tungsten possesses substantial lability.
