Potential Energy Surfaces for Reactions of X Metal Atoms (X = Cu, Zn, Cd, Ga, Al, Au, or Hg) with YH4 Molecules (Y = C, Si, or Ge) and Transition Probabilities at Avoided Crossings in Some Cases
Table 1
Coinage metal family (Cu, Au). Relative energies (kcal mol−1) of the reactants, intermediary HXYH3 and final products for three states of the metal. X(2nd): metal in second excited state. X(1st): metal in first excited state. X(gs): metal in ground state. : experimentally measured energy. : theoretically calculated energy.
