45. This was confirmed by performing a calculation on a (2 × 2) unit cell of the Cl-Si(111) surface. The reaction of ammonia on this surface has an activation-energy barrier of 34.4 kcal/mol which is much larger than the barrier of 12.4 kcal/mol found on the Cl-Si(100) surface (reaction through the dimers row).
