Abstract
Adsorption properties of gold nanoparticles deposited on pyrolytic graphite were studied. It was established that water molecules are formed as a result of serial adsorption of hydrogen and oxygen on the surface of nanoparticles. The energies of bonding between chemisorbed hydrogen and gold were determined.
