Rate of Decay
rate = kN
The rate of decay is proportional to the
number of nuclides. This represents a first-
order process.

Steps:
1. Adsorption and activation of the
reactants.
2. Migration of the adsorbed reactants on
the surface.
3. Reaction of the adsorbed substances.
4. Escape, or desorption, of the products.
