We used theory to compute coverage dependent adsorption energies and differential desorption barriers. These barriers were fitted to experimental temperature programmed desorption of oxygen from Pt(111) using scaling factors. Finally, we used the scaling factors to estimate the desorption properties of oxygen on other metals.
