Abstract

Tuning of catalyst-support interactions potentially offers a powerful means to control activity. However, rational design of the catalyst support is challenged by a lack of clear property-activity relationships. Here, we uncover how the electronegativity of a support influences reaction pathways in electrochemical CO
