Abstract

The complete oxidation of ethylene over various supported metal oxides was studied as a means of assessing catalytic activities. The oxides of Co and Cr were most active. Comparison with other activity patterns shows that chromia is highly active whenever hydrogen in some form is present on the surface. When benzene is completely oxidized over chromia an inversion in activity is noted, suggesting a change in oxidation state.
