The adsorption and reaction of acetic acid with Pd(110) have been studied using thermal molecular beam reaction measurements and temperature-programmed desorption. Acetic acid adsorption results in the formation of acetate species which decompose to produce coincident CO2 and H-2 desorption from the surface. C is deposited on the surface from the dehydrogenation of the methyl group. In combination, these steps are found to exhibit unusual kinetics including (i) a '' surface explosion '' during heating and (ii) bistability in the reaction pro. le for heating and cooling curves. This is the first report of such behaviour for a complex system during in situ reaction.
