  text: As a bottleneck in the direct synthesis of hydrogen peroxide, the development
    of an efficient palladium-based catalyst has garnered great attention. However,
    elusive active centers and reaction mechanism issues inhibit further optimization
    of its performance. In this work, advanced microkinetic modeling with the adsorbate–adsorbate
    interaction and nanoparticle size effect based on first-principles calculations
    is developed. A full mechanism uncovering the significance of adsorbate–adsorbate
    interaction is determined on Pd nanoparticles. We demonstrate unambiguously that
    Pd(100) with main coverage species of O2 and H is beneficial to H2O2 production,
    being consistent with experimental operando observation, while H2O forms on Pd(111)
    covered by O species and Pd(211) covered by O and OH species. Kinetic analyses
    further enable quantitative estimation of the influence of temperature, pressure,
    and particle size. Large-size Pd nanoparticles are found to achieve a high H2O2
    reaction rate when the operating conditions are moderate temperature and higher
    oxygen partial pressure. We reveal that specific facets of the Pd nanoparticles
    are crucial factors for their selectivity and activity. Consistent with the experiment,
    the production of H2O2 is discovered to be more favorable on Pd nanoparticles
    containing Pd(100) facets. The ratio of H2/O2 induces substantial variations in
    the coverage of intermediates of O2 and H on Pd(100), resulting in a change in
    product selectivity.

  text: Physical catalysts often have multiple sites where reactions can take place.
    One prominent example is single-atom alloys, where the reactive dopant atoms can
    preferentially locate in the bulk or at different sites on the surface of the
    nanoparticle. However, ab initio modeling of catalysts usually only considers
    one site of the catalyst, neglecting the effects of multiple sites. Here, nanoparticles
    of copper doped with single-atom rhodium or palladium are modeled for the dehydrogenation
    of propane. Single-atom alloy nanoparticles are simulated at 400–600 K, using
    machine learning potentials trained on density functional theory calculations,
    and then the occupation of different single-atom active sites is identified using
    a similarity kernel. Further, the turnover frequency for all possible sites is
    calculated for propane dehydrogenation to propene through microkinetic modeling
    using density functional theory calculations. The total turnover frequencies of
    the whole nanoparticle are then described from both the population and the individual
    turnover frequency of each site. Under operating conditions, rhodium as a dopant
    is found to almost exclusively occupy (111) surface sites while palladium as a
    dopant occupies a greater variety of facets. Undercoordinated dopant surface sites
    are found to tend to be more reactive for propane dehydrogenation compared to
    the (111) surface. It is found that considering the dynamics of the single-atom
    alloy nanoparticle has a profound effect on the calculated catalytic activity
    of single-atom alloys by several orders of magnitude.
