Interpretation of metal descriptors in physical terms. First and second descriptors for the metals, \({t}_{i1}\) and \({t}_{i2}\), plotted against a the \(d\)-band center and b the reduction potential50, respectively. The inset shows that \(d\)-band center controls the adsorption energy on late transition metals (groups 8–11)30,31, but it cannot describe the behavior of Zn and Cd. Additional data and plots are provided in Supplementary Table 2 and Supplementary Figs. 1 and 5
