Catalysis

The Physical and Chemical Properties of Gold 35
the energies and occupancies of orbitals in which the evidence electrons are
located is not however easily predicted.
The usefulness of bimetallic systems in catalytic studies was mentioned
in Section 1.6, and their preparation is surveyed in Sections 3.2.3 and 4.6;
their beneficial application to selective oxidation of organic molecules is
particularly stressed in Sections 8.3-8.5.
