Abstract

Structural chemical arguments and results of nonempirical quantum chemical calculations are used to explain the difference in properties of bridging and terminal silanol groups. In this way, greater acidity and sensitivity toward adsorbed molecules or composition are predicted for bridging hydroxyls.
