Catalytic decomposition of N2O on La2Cu0.5M0.5O4 (M=Co, Ni, Cu and Zn)

Decomposition of N₂O has been studied over La₂Cu_0.5M_0.5O₄ (M=Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) between 380 and 485°C at 50 torr initial pressure of N₂O to understand the mutual interaction of two different active metal ions of the same concentration and valence in deciding the physico-chemical and catalytic properties. A multicenter type of adsorption of N₂O has been visualized and it is found that the rate is governed by the electronic factor.
