22. HCN and HNC cannot be distinguished on the basis of mass spectrometer signal intensity distributions. The product is assumed to be HCN based on its greater thermodynamic stability.

28. The trace amount of HCN production on Rh(111)-p(2×1)-O was neglected for the purposes of this calculation.
29. The standard deviation in the measurement of the integrated mass spectrometer signal intensity for water, and consequently azomethane reaction, is 29%. Although the experimental value is highly reproducible, the quoted error is relatively large because of propagation of errors in calculations.
