Catalysis
The term ‘‘catalysis’’ was coined in 1835 by the Swedish chemist Berzelius, but a suitable definition was introduced only many years later by Ostwald who wrote in 1894: ‘‘Catalysis is the acceleration of a slow chemical process by the presence of a foreign material’’. -G. Ertl, Angew. Chem., Int. Ed., 2009, 48, 6600–6606

Basic Principles• catalysts enhance reaction rates by lowering the activation energy
• Opening of a new reaction pathway with lower activation energy
• Supply of partial bond for stabilizing the transition state and creating a balance of
energy required for breaking and making of reactant and products chemical
bonding
• Structure and redistribution of electronic configuration in synergy with reaction
pathway helps in mimizing the enygy barrier with lowering of activation eenrgy
• Its binding to the Substrate plays a role as adsorption and desorprtion are equally
important
• Electrocatalysis can promote a redox reaction in complicated mechanistic way with
the helps of electrochemical potenial grandient

• Hydrogen based renewable energy sources getting momentum with the advent of OER , HER, ORR electrocatalysts
• Synergy between, substrate, reactant, intermediates and products plays an eminet role in making the process efficient
• design of active materials is an important aspect of electrocatalysis, their stability during the course of a reaction is a concern for nearly all electrodes used in energy conversion and storage system
• it is possible to monitor in situ the dissolution of catalysts atoms operando
• stability of catalyst is closely linked to an atomic- and molecular-level understanding of the catalytic mechanisms for water splitting reaction
• notably, perovskites based electrocatalysts for OER in alkaline conditions works very well from stability perspectives
