Definition of scaling relations. <\/strong>The review explains scaling relations in three complementary ways: <br>(1) by expressing them through adsorption energies; <br>(2) by formulating them as chemical and physical equations; and <br>(3) by illustrating them as straight path lines on the theoretical volcano plot, which connects adsorption energy with catalytic activity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Origin of scaling relations. <\/strong>The commonly accepted thermodynamic explanation of scaling relations is presented, together with additional geometrical and chemical perspectives that give the reader a broader understanding of how these relations arise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Classification of strategies to manipulate scaling relations.<\/strong> The review identifies five general strategies for manipulating scaling relations. Each strategy is: <br>(1) explained using examples from the literature; <br>(2) supported by original numerical estimates; <br>(3) ordered chronologically to reflect how the field has developed; and <br>(4) discussed in the context of future directions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Two governing principles in electrocatalysis. <\/strong>Two main principles are discussed: the well-established Sabatier principle, which states that optimal activity is achieved when binding is \u201c<strong>neither too strong nor too weak<\/strong>\u201d, and the emerging principle that both activity and selectivity depend on two adsorption sites being \u201c<strong>neither<\/strong> <strong>too far nor too close<\/strong>\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Verification of the principles and strategies.<\/strong> The review explains why it is important, and also feasible, to use these principles and strategies in both experiments and simulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feel free to reuse all figures in your presentations: <a href=\"https:\/\/gitlab.com\/doublelayer\/chemsocrev_2025_scaling-relations\">https:\/\/gitlab.com\/doublelayer\/chemsocrev_2025_scaling-relations<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our tutorial review is finally out: https:\/\/pubs.rsc.org\/en\/content\/articlelanding\/2025\/cs\/d5cs00597c Key learning points 1.
