Ab initio calculations based on density functional theory have been used to study the decompsition of N₂O on MgO. The reaction is predicted to occur on 0_3c and O_4c atoms, but not on 0_5c atoms, with an activation barrier of 25-27 kcal/mol, in agreement with the experimental value of 35 kcal/mol. Natural bond orbital analysis shows that the reaction leaves O ad-atoms on those surface O anions to form a peroxide-like "0₂^2-" species. The O-O bond stretching frequency is predicted to be in the range from 820 cm^-1 to 825 cm^-1.
