AbstractWe consider a three-state lattice-gas with nearest-neighbor interactions on a triangular lattice as a model for multicomponent chemi- and physisorption. By varying the lateral interaction constants between the adsorbate particles, this model can be made to exhibit either enhanced adsorption or poisoning (inhibited adsorption). We discuss here the conditions on the interaction constants that lead to poisoning. We present the results of a ground-state calculation and detailed numerical study of the phase diagram for a set of interactions that exhibits poisoning. We calculate the phase diagrams and adsorption isotherms by the finite-size scaling transfer-matrix method. We consider the result as a simple model for the coadsorption of Sulphur and Hydrogen on a Platinum (111) surface, with interaction constants estimated from experimental data. The resulting adsorption isotherms are in good agreement with experimental results.

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.
