The coverage
for this structure is θ = 1/2 ( θ = 0.5)
The coverage
for this structure is θ = 1/2 ( θ = 0.5)
Rationale
In this instance , if we let the rectangular substrate unit cell be of unit area then the (2x1) cell of the adsorbate has an area of 2 units and contains one adsorbate atom : hence
Coverage = ( 1 / 2 ) x 1 = 0.50
