description The electroformation of adsorbed species on Pt and Rh from CO<sub>2</sub> dissolved in aqueous 0.5 M H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> and the influence of adsorbed species on the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) were examined for smooth and columnar structured Pt and smooth and rhodized Rh electrodes at 25|dgC. Different electrosorbed species resulting from the adsorption of CO<sub>2</sub> on Rh were found. The electro-oxidation of these adsorbates on Rh takes place over a potential range larger than that for adsorbates on Pt, overlapping the potential range of electroformation of the O-containing layer. A part of the reduced CO<sub>2</sub> adsorbates on Rh behaves as CO-like adsorbates. The presence of adsorbed species from CO<sub>2</sub> influences differently the stationary HER current potential curves for both types of Pt and Rh electrodes. In the range of low current density (cd), the Tafel slope for Pt is −0.030 V decade<sup>−1</sup>. Conversely, the presence of a chemisorbed species on Rh changes the Tafel slope for the HER in the range of low cd from −0.030 V decade<sup>−1</sup> for CO<sub>2</sub>-free solutions to −0.120 V decade<sup>−1</sup> for CO<sub>2</sub>-saturated solution. These changes are explained by a modification in the rate-determining step of the HER produced by chemisorbed species.
