(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given desorption energy, the time required for hydrogen atom remain on surface has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Half-life: The time required for half of a reactant to be consumed in a reaction is said to be half-life.

  • Half-life of a reaction is represented by the symbol as t1/2.
  • Half-life is discovered by Ernst Rutherford's in 1907 from the original term half-life period.
