Platinum nanoparticles of diameter ∼ 2 nm are important catalysts in carbon monoxide oxidation to carbon dioxide. Platinum crystallizes in a face-centered cubic arrangement with an edge length of 3.924 Å. (a) Estimate how many platinum atoms would fit into a 2.0-nm sphere; the volume of a sphere is (4/3)πr3. Recall that 1 Å = 1 × 10-10 m and 1 nm = 1 × 10-9 m. (b) Estimate how many platinum atoms are on the surface of a 2.0-nm Pt sphere, using the surface area of a sphere (4πr2) and assuming that the “footprint” of one Pt atom can be estimated from its atomic diameter of 2.8 Å (c) Using your results from (a) and (b), calculate the percentage of Pt atoms that are on the surface of a 2.0-nm nanoparticle. (d) Repeat these calculations for a 5.0-nm platinum nanoparticle. (e) Which size of nanoparticle would you expect to be more catalytically active and why?
