Density functional theory modeling of chromate adsorption onto ferrihydrite nanoparticles
Abstract Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed on a model of a ferrihydrite nanoparticle interacting with chromate ($$ {\text{CrO}}_{4}^{2 - } $$ CrO42- ) in water. Two configurations each of monodentate and bidentate adsorbed chromate as well as an outer-sphere and a dissolved...
