Notes:
The isotopic exchange between hydrogen and methane over Ni catalyst has been studied as a function of temperature, isotopic substitution, and ratio of hydrogen to methane. The experimental results can be described by means of a model in which methane is adsorbed either as methyl or as methylene. The adsorbed species undergo one or several exchanges. The four required parameters are adjusted to the experimental results. The exchange of partially deuterated methane with H2 or D2 allowed us to study the isotopic effect on the adsorption and the exchange processes.
