Abstract: | The electron donor properties of Nd2O3 activated at 300, 500 and 800°C were investigated through studies on the adsorption of electron acceptors of various electron affinities - 7, 7, 8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (2.84 eV). 2, 3, 5, 6-tetrachloro-l , 4-benzoquinone (2.40 eV). p-dinitrobenzene (1.77 eV), and m-dinitrobenzene (1.26 eV) in solvents acetonitrile and 1, 4-dioxan. The extent of electron transfer during adsorption has been found from magnetic measurements and electronic spectral data. The corresponding data on mixed oxides of neodymium and aluminium are reported for various. compositions. The acid-base properties of catalysts were also determined using a set of Hammett indicators. |

Abstract: | The adsorption of electron acceptors, viz.,7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane(TCNQ), 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-p- benzoquinone (chloranil) and p-dinitrobenzene (PDNB) on the surface of three rare earth oxides Y2O3, Nd203 and Pr6O11 has been studied in acetonitrile and dioxan. From the radical concentration on the surface determined using ESR spectral data, the electron donor strength of the rare earth oxides are reported. |

Abstract: | Acid/base strength distribution of Y2O3 and its mixed oxides with alumina catalysts are measured on Hammett acidity function scale and expressed in terms of H0max value. Basicity of Y2O3 increases with increase in activation temperature and for mixed oxides the basicity increases with increase in concentration of Y2O3, in the catalyst. |

Abstract: | The limit of electron transfer in electron affinity from the oxide surface to the electron acceptor (EA) are reported from the adsorption of EA on DY203, mixed oxides of DY203 with alumina and mixed oxides of Y203 with y-alumina. The extent of electron transfer is understood from magnetic measurements. |
