Abstract
Abstract The electrocatalyzed ammonia oxidation reaction (AOR) is a potential pathway toward waste ammonia remediation, energy generation, and the synthesis of value‐added products. To date, mechanistic studies have focused on elucidating the progress of AOR on Pt‐based catalysts with an established pathway for only. In this work, density functional theory was applied to determine the lowest energy intermediates toward nitrogen gas, nitrite, and nitrate formation on ‐, a promising electrocatalyst material for AOR. It was found that dinitrogen formation progresses via NH‐NH coupling, whereas nitrite and nitrate formation occurs via deprotonation of ammonia to form adsorbed N and subsequent hydroxylation to form oxygenated intermediates. This work is the first to report a mechanism for nitrite and nitrate formation and will also serve as a benchmark for future studies on Ni‐based materials.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
